CROSS EYED MARY Lyrics

Who would be a poor man, a beggerman, 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 it clean

She 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 gray

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 Maiden Iron - CROSS EYED MARY - http://motolyrics.com/maiden-iron/cross-eyed-mary-lyrics.html

A poor man's rich girl and she'll do it for a song

A rich man's stealer but her favour's good and strong

She's the Robin Hood of Highgate helps the poor man get along

Laughing in the playground gets no kicks from little boys

would rather make it with a letching gray

Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung

who watches through the railings as they play

Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again

She signs no contract but she always plays it clean

She dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel

and the jack knife barber drops her off at school

Cross-eyed Mary, Oh Mary.... Oh cross-eyed Mary
