Lyrics Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson

Straight And Narrow

She walks the straight and narrow

She does what the Good Book says

She walks the straight and narrow

She got eyes in the back of her head, boys

Eyes in the back of her head

And when she looks to Heaven

She's looking at you instead

When she looks to Heaven

She got eyes in the back of her head, boys

Eyes in the back of her head

A man's a fool to need her

A man's a fool to yearn

Giving up everything for maybe

Nothing in return

She walks on clouds of glory

Her feet don't touch the dirt

She walks on clouds of glory

It'll make you tear your shirt, boys

Make you tear your shirt

A man's a fool to need her

A man's a fool to yearn

Giving up everything for maybe

Nothing in return

She trips the light fantastic

But she dances all alone

Her clothes are made of plastic

But her heart is made of stone, boys

Her heart is made of stone

She walks the straight and narrow

She does what the Good Book says

She walks the straight and narrow

She got eyes in the back of her head, boys

Eyes in the back of her head
