Lyrics:
Cooksferry Queen / Richard Thompson Well there's a house In an alley In the squats and low-rise Of a town with no future But that's where my future lies It's a secret, but no secret It's a rule, but no rule Where you find the darkest avenue There you'll find the brightest jewel Now my name, it is Mulvaney And I'm known quite famously People speak my name in whispers What higher praise can there be? But I'd trade my fine mohair For tie dyes and faded jeans If she wanted me some other way She's my Cooks-ferry queen She gave me one pill to get big She gave me one pill to get small I saw snakes dancing all around her feet And dead men comin through the walls Well I'm the prince of this parish I've been ruthless and I've been mean But she blew my mind and she opened my eyes She's my Cooks-ferry queeen Ahhhhhh..... Well she's got every rare perfection All her looks beyond compare She's got dresses that seem to float in the wind Pre-Raphelite curls in her hair She could get the lame to walking She could get the blind to see She could make wine out of Thames River water She could make a believer out of me Yes I'd trade it all tomorrow All the wicked things I've been She's my bright jewel of the alley She's my Cooks-ferry Queen Yes, I'd trade it all tomorrow All the wicked things I've been She's my bright jewel of the alley She's my Cooks-ferry Queen Ohhhhhh.....
