Warren Zevon - Macgillycuddy's Reeks lyrics
[Warren Zevon - Macgillycuddy's Reeks lyrics]
She stood beside my narrow bed
To check my EKG
She shook her pretty little head
At what's become of me
I thought I glimpsed a path
That led through rhododendron days
And fuchsia nights to the boat shed
In which we two once lay
But she gazed only at my chart
The valleys and the peaks
Brought back the time she broke
My heart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
But she gazed only at my chart
The valleys and the peaks
Brought back the time she broke
My heart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
I saw her on Killarney's shore
One morning in July
When I still thought I was a thorn
Tryin' to find a side
I met her in the little
Launch that runs to Innisfallen
Hunched together, haunch to haunch
Tryin' to keep my balance
But she upset my applecart
She kissed me on the cheek
And I was struck by Cupid's
Dart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Macgillycuddy's Reeks
When I was struck by Cupid's
Dart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
She was a systems analyst for
A dot com company
She said, "You think because we've kissed
I'll be yours eternally"
"I'll sign another prenup and
We'll merge our PLCs
That's why most girls go
Belly-up in this economy"
So when it comes to a jump start
Your forecast's pretty bleak
The NASDAQ goes by dips and
Starts like Macgillycuddy's Reeks
Macgillycuddy's Reeks, boy
Macgillycuddy's Reeks
The NASDAQ goes by dips and
Starts like Macgillycuddy's Reeks
She looked only at my chart
The valleys and the peaks
Brought back the time she broke
My heart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Macgillycuddy's Reeks
That was the time she broke
My heart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
To check my EKG
She shook her pretty little head
At what's become of me
I thought I glimpsed a path
That led through rhododendron days
And fuchsia nights to the boat shed
In which we two once lay
But she gazed only at my chart
The valleys and the peaks
Brought back the time she broke
My heart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
But she gazed only at my chart
The valleys and the peaks
Brought back the time she broke
My heart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
I saw her on Killarney's shore
One morning in July
When I still thought I was a thorn
Tryin' to find a side
I met her in the little
Launch that runs to Innisfallen
Hunched together, haunch to haunch
Tryin' to keep my balance
But she upset my applecart
She kissed me on the cheek
And I was struck by Cupid's
Dart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Macgillycuddy's Reeks
When I was struck by Cupid's
Dart in Macgillycuddy's Reeks
She was a systems analyst for
A dot com company
She said, "You think because we've kissed
