Cross-Eyed Mary lyrics

Artist Jethro Tull
Album(s) Aqualung

Lyrics

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
