The Old Laughing Lady — текст песни (Stereophonics)

Dont call pretty peggy

She cant hear you no more

Dont leave no message round her back door

They say the old laughing lady been here before

She dont keep time

She dont count scores



You cant have a cupboard if there aint no walls

You got to move, theres no time for you to stall

They say the old laughing lady dropped by to call

And when she leaves she leaves nothing at all



See the drunkard of the village falling off the street

Cant tell his ankles from the rest of his feet

He loves his old laughing lady

cause the taste is so sweet

But the laughing ladys loving

Aint the kind he can keep



Theres a fever on the freeway

Blacks out tonight

Theres a slipping on the stairway

That dont feel right

Theres a rumbling in the bedroom

And a flashing light

Theres the old laughing lady

Everything is alright

Theres the old laughing lady

Everything is alright
