goodbye mercy kelly - trader horne lyrics
crook eye sat on the wall
his thoughts he recalled
were nothing at all
aye, aye, the wobbly chin
the permanent grin
all covered with gin
and sergeant mccallister
pushed the minister’s car
the children, n0bby and paul
played in the tall
tall castle walls
the days tumbled along
like a waterfall
in deep silent song
and sergeant mccallister
drank the minister’s wine
and goodbye, mercy kelly, goodbye
one look at your facе and i’ll cry
oh crook eye, carry the water
his bеautiful daughter
was born without laughter
his wife who once was a mother
she took to another
ran off with her lover
and he who doesn’t say nothing
has somehow forgotten
how to say something
and sergeant mccallister
kissed the minister’s hand
and goodbye, mercy kelly, goodbye
one look at your face and i’ll cry
aye, aye, the laughing old man
does what he can
and holds out his hand
his jaw was always ajar
he couldn’t be far
from the nearest bar
he gives the sergeant the creeps
because he sleeps
with the cattle and sheep
in heaven, mccallister’s sure
to be in demand
and goodbye, mercy kelly, goodbye
one look at your face and i’ll cry
goodbye, mercy kelly, goodbye
one look at your face and i’ll cry
crook eye sat on the wall
his thoughts he recalled
were nothing at all
