Lyrics
Victoria
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.
Down the dirty old streets
The Angel of the East is calling
And with a trembling hand
I open up a can
I can hear a baby bawling
Before I open up my eyes
I can feel her love inside me
But then I realize
My girl with green eyes
Is no longer there beside me
Vicoria, you left me in opium euphoria
With a fat monk singing Gloria
My girl with green eyes
Only you see that I am lazy
Doon't care about fame
Nor money like a child
And I'm just like a child
Who's forgotten how to smile
All the people are so busy
I have nothing to bother about
It seems that I'm different
Seems that I am strange
I'm a bumpkin, I'm a lout
Some day I know
I'll put my pipe aside and hit the road
However far away I have to go
To find my girl with green eyes
Some day I know
I'll put my pipe aside and hit the road
However far away I have to go
To find my girl with green eyes
