English girls are pretty when they play guitar
Crazy like a day just a-breaking I ain't sure what for
Ain't got a mother or father or place to fall
She got a brother in the blues, but he doesn't know the blues at all
D C
Said you didn't love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you but ok, alright
Said you didn't love me, didn't want a thing, English girls can be so mean

She's got eyes as pretty as a pair of jewels
Falling down in camden like a couple drunken criminals
She had a messy bedroom on the edge of town
I ain't ever been good enough to ever keep around
Said you didn't love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you but ok, alright
Said you didn't love me, didn't mean a thing, English girls can be so mean
Am B C
But, ohh, look at you now
Ohh, look at you now
Mmmm, best I've ever seen
Just a tall drink of water, just a-pourin' on down the sink
Tall drink of water, she's a Norfolk waterfall
Little daybreaker, she's a shootin' like a cannonball
Crazy like a rocket when you're coming through my radio
Kept me in your bed till the wintertime turned to fall
Fall time coming, and I guess my little bird can sing
Come on Elizabeth, a come on a Bethany
Come on forever, I'm tired and I want to sleep
My little dove flew, and I’m guessin' she was done with me
Said you didn't love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you but ok, alright
Said you didn't love me, didn't want a thing, English girls can be so mean
But ohh, look at you now
Ohh, look at you now
Mmmm, best I've ever seen
Just a tall drink of water, just a-pourin' on down the sink
Kiss me on the lips when my heart just laughed it off
Words may move, but there never moving fast enough
Celebrate the differences, I celebrate the songs you sing
Just three words, my love: you meant everything
Am B C
You meant everything
You meant everything
