English Girls Approximately (Live At Carnegie Hall / 11/15/2014)

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

Said you didn't love me
It was right on time
I was just about to tell you but okay, 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 but okay, alright

Said you didn't love me
Didn't want a thing
English girls can be so mean

Ohh, look at you now
Ohh, look at you now
Mmmm, best I 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
You Kept me in your bed till the wintertime turned to fall
Fall time coming, and I guess my little bird can sing
So come on Elizabeth, a come on a Bethany
Come on further, I'm tired and I want to sleep
My little dove flew, 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 but okay, 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 but my heart just laughed it off
Words may move, but they're never moving fast enough
You could celebrate the differences as I celebrate the songs you sing
Just three words, my love: "you meant everything"

You meant everything
You meant everything
You meant everything
