cross-eyed mary - new stereo mix - jethro tull 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
she 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
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 goes jumping in again
she signs no contract, but she always plays the game
she dines in hampstead village on expense accounted gruel
and the jack-knife barber drops her off at school
cross-eyed mary
oh, mary
oh, cross-eyed mary
