Madame George - Van Morrison[00:00:01]
Down on Cyprus Avenue[00:00:14]
With a childlike vision leaping into view[00:00:19]
Clicking clacking of the high heeled shoe[00:00:27]
Ford and Fitzroy Madame George[00:00:33]
Marching with the soldier boy behind[00:00:42]
He's much older with hat on drinking wine[00:00:49]
And that smell of sweet perfume[00:00:55]
Comes drifting through[00:00:58]
The cool night air like Shalimar[00:01:03]
And outside they're making all the stops[00:01:11]
The kids out in the street collecting bottle-tops[00:01:17]
Gone for cigarettes and matches in the shops[00:01:25]
Happy taken Madame George[00:01:32]
That's when you fall[00:01:40]
Whoa that's when you fall[00:01:44]
Yeah that's when you fall[00:01:54]
When you fall into a trance[00:02:04]
A sitting on a sofa playing games of chance[00:02:09]
With your folded arms and history books[00:02:16]
You glance into the eyes of Madame George[00:02:20]
And you think you found the bag[00:02:33]
You're getting weaker and your knees begin to sag[00:02:38]
In the corner playing dominoes in drag[00:02:46]
The one and only Madame George[00:02:53]
And then from outside the frosty window raps[00:03:00]
She jumps up and says Lord[00:03:07]
Have mercy I think it's the cops[00:03:09]
And immediately drops everything she gots[00:03:14]
Down into the street below[00:03:22]
And you know you gotta go[00:03:30]
On that train from Dublin up to Sandy Row[00:03:36]
Throwing pennies at the bridges down below[00:03:43]
And the rain hail sleet and snow[00:03:50]
Say goodbye to Madame George[00:03:57]
Dry your eye for Madame George[00:04:04]
Wonder why for Madame George[00:04:12]
And as you leave the room is filled with music[00:04:28]
Laughing music dancing music all around the room[00:04:32]
And all the little boys come around[00:04:40]
Walking away from it all[00:04:45]
So cold and as you're about to leave[00:04:50]
She jumps up and says hey love[00:05:02]
You forgot your gloves[00:05:07]
And the gloves to love to love the gloves[00:05:10]
The gloves to love to love the gloves[00:05:13]
The gloves to love to love the gloves[00:05:16]
The gloves to love to love the gloves[00:05:18]
To say goodbye to Madame George[00:05:24]
Dry your eye for Madame George[00:05:31]
Wonder why for Madame George[00:05:38]
Dry your eyes for Madame George[00:05:46]
Say goodbye in the wind[00:05:56]
And the rain on the back street[00:06:02]
In the backstreet in the back street[00:06:10]
Say goodbye to Madame George[00:06:14]
In the backstreet in the back street[00:06:24]
In the back street[00:06:26]
Down home down home in the back street[00:06:33]
Gotta go say goodbye goodbye goodbye[00:06:45]
Dry your eye your eye your eye[00:06:57]
Your eye your eye [00:06:59]
Say goodbye to Madame George[00:07:11]
And the loves to love to love the love[00:07:18]
The loves to love to love the love[00:07:20]
The loves to love to love the love[00:07:22]
The loves to love to love the love[00:07:23]
Say goodbye ooo mmm[00:07:27]
Say goodbye goodbye goodbye[00:08:07]
Goodbye goodbye goodbye[00:08:11]
Goodbye to Madame George[00:08:14]
Dry your eye for Madame George[00:08:21]

The love's to love the love's to love[00:08:34]
The love's to love the love's to love [00:08:37]
