English girls approximately

English girls are pretty when they play guitar
Crazy like a day just a-breaking I ain´t sure what for
Ain´t got a mother or father or place to fall
She got a brother in the (blues / booze), but he doesn´t know the blues at all
Said you didn´t love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you that I care alright
Said you didn´t love me, didn´t want a thing, English girls can be so mean
She´s got eyes as pretty as a pair of jewels
Falling down a canyon like a couple drunken criminals
She had a messy bedroom on the edge of town
I ain´t ever been good enough to ever keep around
Said you didn´t love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you that it´ll be alright
Said you didn´t love me, didn´t mean a thing, English girls can be so mean
But, ohh, look at you now
Ohh, look at you now
Mmmm, best I´ve ever seen
Just a tall drink of water, just a-pourin´ on down the sink
Tall drink of water, she´s a Norfolk waterfall
Little daybreaker, she´s a shootin´ like a cannonball
Crazy like a rocket when you´re coming through my radio
Kept me in your bed till the wintertime turned to fall
Fall time coming, and I guess my little bird can sing
Come on Elizabeth, a come on a Bethany
Come on further, I´m tired and I want to sleep
My little dove do, and I guess she was done with me
Said you didn´t love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you that it´ll be alright
Said you didn´t love me, didn´t want a thing, English girls can be so mean
But ohh, look at you now
Ohh, look at you now
Mmmm, best I´ve ever seen
Just a tall drink of water, just a-pourin´ on down the sink
Kiss me on the lips when my heart just laughed it off
Words may move, but there never moving fast enough
Celebrate the differences, I celebrate the songs you sing
Just three words, my love: you meant everything
You meant everything
You meant everything
You meant everything
Crazy like a day just a-breaking I ain´t sure what for
Ain´t got a mother or father or place to fall
She got a brother in the (blues / booze), but he doesn´t know the blues at all
Said you didn´t love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you that I care alright
Said you didn´t love me, didn´t want a thing, English girls can be so mean
She´s got eyes as pretty as a pair of jewels
Falling down a canyon like a couple drunken criminals
She had a messy bedroom on the edge of town
I ain´t ever been good enough to ever keep around
Said you didn´t love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you that it´ll be alright
Said you didn´t love me, didn´t mean a thing, English girls can be so mean
But, ohh, look at you now
Ohh, look at you now
Mmmm, best I´ve ever seen
Just a tall drink of water, just a-pourin´ on down the sink
