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 / booze), but he doesn't know the blues at all 

Said you didn't love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you that I care 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 a canyon 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 that it'll be alright 

Said you didn't love me, didn't mean 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 



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 further, I'm tired and I want to sleep 

My little dove do, and I guess she was done with me 

Said you didn't love me, it was right on time, I was just about to tell you that it'll be 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 

You meant everything 

You meant everything 

You meant everything
