Neil Young - The Old Laughing Lady lyrics
[Neil Young - The Old Laughing Lady lyrics]
She can't hear you no more
Don't leave no message 'round her back door
They say the old laughing
Lady been here before
She don't keep time, she don't count score
You can't have a cupboard if
There ain't no wall you got to move
There's no time left to stall
They say the old laughing lady
Dropped by to call
When she leaves, she leaves nothing at all
See the drunkard of the village
Falling on the street
Can't tell his ankles from the
Rest of his feet
He loves his old laughing lady 'cause
Her taste is so sweet
But his laughing lady's loving ain't
The kind he can keep
There's a fever on the freeway
Blacks out the night
There's a slippin' on the stairway
Just don't feel right
And there's a rumbling in the bedroom
And a flashing of light
There's the old laughing lady
Everything is all right
