Raggedy figure moving down the street Dodging all of the creeps she meets Cigarette papers and a bottle of wine A clove of garlic and a jug of juice In and out of the store before closing time She won't stop for a Muslim bean pie She won't stop for an X-rated burger She won't stop for a war game video She won't stop for the voices on the street She just wants to get on home and rest her tired feet I'm in love with a ragamuffin girl She's been running all over the world But now she's here with me She might linger in the shade for a while To check out the preachers and the gospel choirs Looking for a bargain at the sidewalk sale Looking for trouble in the corner of her eye Then she'll climb upstairs and start up a pot of tea Throw her stuff on the floor and say hello to me I wanna bury my face in your hair The telephone's ringing, but I don't care Why should we have to go anywhere today? Can't we just tell them all to go away? I mean, they can always call back again some other time... All the 21st century cutting edge brats Would have you believe they know where it's at All the fashion plates can engage in debates About which style is the happening thing this year They don't mean a thing at all to you or me, my dear I'm in love with a ragamuffin girl We light the candles and we toss and twirl And talk of where we'd rather be Ferry boat jetting across the bay Drink in my hand and a smile on my face Watching the lights of the landlords and lawyers Of Belvedere and Tiburon As the sun sinks over the ancient forest and the ocean beyond Yeah it all looks real pretty from here No particular place to go No particular place to go We're spinning in circles on a fragile pool Just like a couple of romantic fools Talking about Palenque and Paleokhora And other places I've never been before (Meanwhile, back in the jungle...) All you steroid swilling macho bloods Who think you be such tough and scary studs You see her walking alone in the dark And you think you've found yourself an easy mark Well, surprise surprise A well-placed kick in your eggshell balls Might open up your eyes Self-defense is a hard-won skill For a self-respecting ragamuffin girl
