[Intro]
[Chorus]
Let fall your soft and swaying skirt
Let fall your shoes, let fall your shirt
I m not the lady killing sort
Enough to hurt a girl in port
[Verse 1]
Marie s gone blonde and lost a stone
She lay on her lawn, spun and alone
And, when the morning sun it rose
Upon Marie in her lacy clothes
[Verse 2]
It lit her up, and she walked around
The winding streets of Camden Town
She don t know who she wants to be
And if I knew, I d tell Marie
[Chorus]
Let fall your soft and swaying skirt
Let fall your shoes, let fall your shirt
I m not the lady killing sort
Enough to hurt a girl in port
[Verse 3]
And Cindy tells me she s had fun
Sitting backstage, someone s plus one
Up in her room the records spin
Needle in the grooves that she s worn thin
[Verse 4]
She lifts a sleeve and she sees a name
And she s got a smile on her face
And she s got a story you can t see
That s just between that name and Cindy
[Verse 5]
And before Holly made her way
Over the sea and far away
She s telling me, inside her car
Driving us back from the Crystal Corner bar
[Verse 6]
