I wrote her name on a bar mat 
She had a peculiar bonnet, 
But a youngish damsel figure 
With her tongue tied to a trigger, 
She seemed a total killer 
Her face all filled with filler, 
Her face a painting palette 
I stomached all her habits, 
Sipped her snow balls poshly like a judge 
But left her lipstick traces on her mug. 
We watched each other closely 
She looks like Bela Lugosi, 
She asked me for a ride home 
I felt around for my comb, 
And in the bar room mirror 
I combed right through her figure, 
She wiggled through the car park 
Into the pit of my heart, 
Sat herself beside me in my van 
A ring on every finger of her hand. 

She lived down by the river 
A flat the council give her, 
Wallpaper very scenic 
Her outlook very beatnik, 
We watched the close and weather 
Then through the door he entered, 
Short sleeves and arms of iron 
And me with just my tie on, 
She said the lodger's used to this by now 
I'd handled all the bull but not the cow. 

Behind her velvet sofa 
I found myself back sober, 
She kept an old acoustic 
She never ever used it, 
A gift for me with a capo 
A six string with an f-hole, 
We made the strangest couple 
A Laurel and Hardy double, 
I learnt to play her favorite country songs 
With one or two chords always going wrong
