Old Laughing Lady : Unplugged
Don t call pretty Peggy,
She can t hear you no more
Don t leave no message
Round her back door
They say the old laughing lady
Been here before
She don t keep time
She don t count score
You can t have a cupboard
If there ain t no wall
You got to move
There s no time for you to stall
020010
They say the old laughing lady
Dropped by to call
And when she leaves
She leaves nothing at all
verse: (without the run through Am)
See the drunkard of the village
Fallin on his feet
He can t tell his ankle
From the rest of his feet
020010
He loves his old laughing lady
Because the taste is so sweet
But the laughin lady s loving
Ain t the kind he can keep
There s a fever on the freeway
Blacks out the night
There s a slippin on the stairway
Just don t feel right
There s a rumblin in the bedroom
And a flashin of light
There s the old laughing lady
Everything is all right
There s the old laughing lady
Everything is all right
notes: the quick change to C and G at the end on many lines is omitted
it occurs everywhere but if there ain t no wall / you got to move...
the run through from C to Am via the B note is a familiar ny trick...
