Lloyd Cole - Mannish Girl Lyrics

Lyrics Mannish Girl - Lloyd Cole



I used to be content to frown
But anything for money now
I′d rather be a mannish kind of girl
I used to get drunk on spanish wine
Well now I'm drunk most all the time
I guess I′ve been too grateful for too long
So I sit around and wait
And watch the grass grow green
And count the cars
Feeling lost, alone, misunderstood
So I wait, hey hey
Yes I wait, hey hey
Well I had a girl in london town
She picked me up and she spun me round
I guess she was a mannish kind of girl
I went away and I still don't know why
Six feet under is where my bloody heart lies
I'm just afraid I can′t forget her now
So I sit around and wait
And watch the grass grow green
And count the cars
Feeling lost, alone, misunderstood
So I wait, hey hey
So I wait, hey hey
Hey hey
I used to be too big to crawl
Now I don′t give a damn at all
I'd rather be a mannish kind of girl
Yeah I used to get drunk on that spanish wine
But now I′m drunk most all the time
I guess I'm just afraid I can′t forget her now
And so I'll sit around and wait
And watch the grass grow green
And count the cars
Feeling lost, alone, misunderstood
So I wait, hey hey
Yeah I wait, hey hey
Yes I wait, hey hey
Yeah I wait, hey hey
Hey hey
