the kelpie woman and me - talis kimberley lyrics
[verse:]
late in summer when the storms were due
i was out in the garden, thinking of you
the baby, he was as happy as a clam
i was singing, i think, you know the way i am
[verse:]
a noise from behind made me turn to see –
and a bold kelpie woman splashed water over me
green as gl-ss with an ebony mane;
i knew better than to offer my name
[chorus:]
better watch your step with a kelpie woman
you can trust the fact that she won’t play fair
it’s the way she is and she can’t help trying
better watch your step with a kelpie mare
[verse:]
she said to me “where do we start?
is it wishes you want to satisfy your heart?”
i said, “hey, kelpie lady, you’ve got it wrong
if you hang around here, i’ll put you in a song”
[verse:]
“but you can’t do that!” said the kelpie, all shocked
“i’m the fae-at-your-door, the riddle unlocked
you’re supposed to ask for impossible things
rubies and gold, your weight in diamond rings
(don’t you want your weight in diamond rings?)”
[verse;]
“well, i don’t,” said i with the baby in my arms
“singers don’t need your flimsy faerie charms —
shall i sing how you came calling on me?”
“you know that’s not supposed to happen,” said she
[chorus:]
better watch your step with a kelpie woman
you can trust the fact that she won’t play fair
it’s the way she is, and she can’t help trying
better watch your step with a kelpie mare
[verse:]
she said to me “if you put me in a song
how will i know you won’t put me in wrong?”
“tell you what,” said i, “come and listen when i’m done”
so i sing this song when the kelpie woman comes
[chorus:]
better watch your step with a kelpie woman
you can trust the fact that she won’t play fair
it’s the way she is, and she can’t help trying
better watch your step with a kelpie mare
[chorus:]
better watch your step with a kelpie woman
you can trust the fact that she won’t play fair
it’s the way she is, and she can’t help trying
better watch your step with a kelpie mare
better watch your step with a kelpie mare
better watch your step, with a kelpie mare…
