I, I know a girl

And she flies right off the handle

At the sound

Of scratching on the wall

Well It could go either way

But I don't mind at all

Cos I'll go, I'll go and I'll go to Liverpool

Uh, oh, oh

Well I know I'll be loved there

She's no scrubber

She's my Breck Road Lover

And we wash in dirty waters

And walk the streets where she gets her name

Oh my lady

My lady clear your ears now

And open up your eyes

We're all out of synch now

And we no longer harmonise

And if lust and despair

Are two bullets in the same gun

Well we've been playing Russian roulette

For far too long

So I'll go. I'll go, I'll go

Well I'll go back to Liverpool

Uh, oh, oh

Well I know I'll be loved there

She's no scrubber

She's my Breck Road Lover

And we wash in dirty waters

And walk the streets where she gets her name

Yes often as we lie on the altar of the morning

Well I call up to the sky

light my way

And I promise I'll believe

I'll go, I'll go

I know I'll go to Liverpool

Uh, oh, oh

Well I know I'll be loved there

She's no scrubber

She's my Breck Road Lover

And we wash in dirty waters

And walk the streets where she gets her name

You see I.

I know a girl.

And she flies right off the handle

Always at the sound

Of scratches on the walls

It could go either way

But I don't mind at all

Cos I'll go, No I'll go. I'll go

I know I'll go to Liverpool

Uh, oh, oh

Yes I know I'll be loved there

She's no scrubber

She's my Breck Road Lover

And we wash in dirty waters

And walk the streets where she gets her name

We walk the streets where she gets her name
