Lyrics
Oliver
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was overblown by all the card sharks.
And the muggers that day
Several million lovers
of that dress that's in the window display
And every day they'd say
Oliver
Oliver
Oliver
Oliver don't stay
She was quite a woman
Quite an understanding woman she was
Sure I really loved her
But she acted like a mother to me
And she loved me and I'd scream
Nancy
Nancy
Nancy
Please take care of me
Oliver, Oliver
Oliver, Oliver
Oliver
Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhh
I was overblown by all the card sharks
And the muggers that day
Several million lovers
of that dress that's in the window display
And every day they'd say
Oliver
Oliver
Oliver
Oliver don't stay
