Cooksferry Queen - Richard Thompson[00:00:00]
Well there's a house[00:00:02]
In an alley[00:00:05]
In the squats and low-rise[00:00:07]
Of a town with no future[00:00:10]
But that's where my future lies[00:00:14]
It's a secret but no secret[00:00:17]
It's a rule but no rule[00:00:21]
Where you find the darkest avenue[00:00:25]
There you'll find the brightest jewel[00:00:28]
Now my name it is Mulvaney[00:00:34]
And I'm known quite famously[00:00:38]
People speak my name in whispers[00:00:41]
What higher praise can there be [00:00:45]
But I'd trade my fine mohair[00:00:49]
For tie dyes and faded jeans[00:00:52]
If she wanted me some other way[00:00:56]
She's my Cooks-ferry queen[00:00:59]
She gave me one pill to get big[00:01:03]
She gave me one pill to get small[00:01:06]
I saw snakes dancing[00:01:10]
All around her feet[00:01:12]
And dead men[00:01:14]
Comin through the walls[00:01:15]
Well I'm the prince of this parish[00:01:17]
I've been ruthless[00:01:21]
And I've been mean[00:01:22]
But she blew my mind[00:01:25]
And she opened my eyes[00:01:27]
She's my Cooks-ferry queeen[00:01:29]
Yes she is[00:01:32]
Yes she is[00:01:33]
Well she's got every rare perfection[00:02:01]
All her looks beyond compare[00:02:04]
She's got dresses[00:02:07]
That seem to float in the wind[00:02:09]
Pre-Raphelite curls in her hair[00:02:11]
She could get the lame to walking[00:02:14]
She could get the blind to see[00:02:18]
She could make wine[00:02:21]
Out of Thames River water[00:02:23]
She could make a believer out of me[00:02:25]
Yes I'd trade it all tomorrow[00:02:29]
All the wicked things I've been[00:02:32]
She's my bright jewel of the alley[00:02:36]
She's my Cooks-ferry Queen[00:02:39]
Yes I'd trade it all tomorrow[00:02:43]
All the wicked things I've been[00:02:47]
She's my bright jewel of the alley[00:02:50]
She's my Cooks-ferry Queen[00:02:54]
Yes she is[00:02:57]
Yes she is[00:02:58]
Yes she is[00:03:01]
