Marianne Faithfull - Lust Lyrics
Anna iThen we met a wealthy man in bostonAnd he paid her a lot because he loved her,But I had to keep a watch on annaWho was too loving, but she loved another,And she paid him a lot because she loved him.So I said: cheat the man who protects youAnd youve lost half your value then:He may pay once although he suspects you,But he wont pay time and time again.Girls can have their fun with moneyWhen theyve no provider they must face;But for girls like us, its not funnyIf we ever even once forget our place.Dont try to sit between two stools,I told her, then I went to see her young friend,And said: if youre kind, you wont hold her,For this love will be your sweethearts bitter end.Girls can have their fun with moneyWhen their money is their own to give,But for girls like us, its not funnyIf we even once forget the way we live.So I sent him a lone one-way ticketWhich had broke his heart to use, naturally.And when anna found out my trick,Hed look like broken bones for me.FamilyOh lord, look down upon our daughter,Show her the wayThat leads the good to thy reward,Incline her heart to observe all thy commandmentsThat her works on earth may prosper.Anna iNow she show off her little round white bottomWorth twice a little texas motel,And for nothing the poolroom can stare at annaAs though she had nothing to sell.Thats why most girls dont get richFor they go bad when they forget their place:Youre not free to buy what you itch forWhen youve got a good provider you must face.FamilyWho fights the good fight and all self subduesWins the palm, gains the crowns.Anna iIt wasnt easy putting that in orderSaying good-bye to young fernandoThen back to edward to apologize,Then the endless nights I heard my sisterSobbing bitterly and repeating:Anna iiIts right like this, anna, but so hard!
