Cross-eyed Mary
Jethro Tull
Who would be a poor man, a beggarman, a thief -- if he had a rich man in his hand. And who would steal the candy from a laughing baby's mouth if he could take it from the money man. Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again. She signs no contract but she always plays the game. Dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel, and the jack-knife barber drops her off at school. Laughing in the playground -- gets no kicks from little boys: would rather make it with a letching grey. Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung, who watches through the railings as they play. Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along. She's a poor man's rich girl and she'll do it for a song. She's a rich man stealer but her favour's good and strong: She's the Robin Hood of Highgate -- helps the poor man get along.1971 4 minute madness 70s All time favourites avantgarde rock Bunt durch den Kuchen cheerio classic rock dramatic driving music favorite albums Favorite Artists favorite tracks Favourites flute flute solo folk rock freak flag good great song heavy heavy-folk-blues-rock honcuks choice IronMan Picks it reminds me of sth pleasant jethro tull list literate malloy2000 playlist - top song me in concert medievalesque names noah nostalgic ominous percussion piano prog Progressive Progressive rock quintessential rating 5 rock rock top seen live story tracks tull ultimate hits whos your daddy wicked ass flute solo
