[Iron Maiden - Cross-Eyed Mary 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 it clean
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 gray
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
A poor man's rich girl and she'll
Do it for a song
A rich man's stealer but her
Favour's good and strong
She's the Robin Hood of Highgate let
The poor man get along
Laughing in the playground gets no
Kicks from little boys
Would rather make it with a letching gray
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 it clean
She dines in Hampstead village
On expense accounted gruel
And the jack knife barber drops
Her off at school cross-eyed Mary
Ooohh, Mary
Cross-eyed Mary
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 it clean
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 gray
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
A poor man's rich girl and she'll
Do it for a song
A rich man's stealer but her
Favour's good and strong
She's the Robin Hood of Highgate let
The poor man get along
Laughing in the playground gets no
Kicks from little boys
Would rather make it with a letching gray
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 it clean
She dines in Hampstead village
On expense accounted gruel
And the jack knife barber drops
Her off at school cross-eyed Mary
Ooohh, Mary
Cross-eyed Mary
