auldie riggs - richard thompson lyrics

Loading...

my name is auldie riggs
and i am a seaman, second rate
i’ll tell you quite a tale
if you’ve got the price of a drink there, mate
do you recognize my face?
the picture ran for a week or more
when i left her lifeless body on the floor

i am a drunken sot
they threw me off a dozen crews
my brain’s begun to rot
i’m so beholden to the booze
and i broke that liza’s neck
i squeezed her till she breathed no more
and i left her lifeless body on the floor

and i don’t feel no sympathy
and your disgust to me’s the highest praise
she had it coming don’t you know
cause i got wise to all her little ways

wh-r-s and b-tches, all are riggs’ slaves

there’s many i’ve dispatched
now tell me was it 8 or 9?
i throttled ’em, i stabbed ’em
dissolved ’em in a vat of lime
i used to know their names
but liza was the last, the wh-r-,
and i left her lifeless body on the floor

and you won’t get no remorse from me
i’m happy as a kitten with the cream
i did her and the others too
i dare to do what some men only dream

how i love to hear that piercing scream

that mary was a tramp
she used to give the boys a wink
i took some souvenirs
before i drowned her in the sink
i kept her cheating heart
and her pretty eyes, which i did adore
and i left her lifeless body on the floor

well i left her lifeless body
i left her lifeless body
her dirty cheating body
i left her lifeless body on the floor
