The Vulgar Boatmen — Margaret Says lyrics

Lyrics

Margaret’s friends come in
Margaret’s friends sit down
I say 'hello' in French
They think I’ve been around
And we’re starting to play
I’m feeling down on my luck
I win a couple of rounds
Don’t think it means too much
I’m supposed to be thinking about the rest of my life
I’m supposed to be thinking about the rest of my life
I’m looking forward to this
She says 'ready to ride'
She’s got a hat on her head tilted over her eyes
All these steps I’m taking
Pictures of my family
That’s what Margaret says
When she talks to me
Margaret shakes her head
Puts her foot down
Says she won’t go alone not even to town
And then she changes her mind
Whispers right in my ear
Sounding very contrite
Sounding very sincere
I’m supposed to be thinking everything’s all right
I’m supposed to be thinking everything’s all right
She asked me a word I don’t know right away
She says 'It's hard to pronounce, but easy to say'
All these steps I’m taking
Pictures of my family
That’s what Margaret says
When she talks to me
And I tell Margaret…
I’m supposed to be thinking about the rest of her life
I’m supposed to be thinking about the rest of her life
I’m looking forward to this
She says 'ready to ride'
She’s got a hat on her head tilted over her eyes
All these steps I’m taking
Pictures of my family
That’s what Margaret says
When she talks to me
And I tell Margaret…
Get into my car
Take the Germantown Road
WDIA, «Love Comes And Goes»
Where Collierville starts and you have to slow down
Turn the car lights off
Turn the radio on
I’m supposed to be thinking about the rest of her life
I’m supposed to be thinking about the rest of her life
I see 's farm
Windows down and we drive
And we drive
