She's was a Liverpool lass
She turned off the gas
Got out of the house
And came down south
To getaway from it all
Getaway from the Mouth of the Mersey
On the ship of education she sailed
And the black sailor paled
She was one of these chips
On the shoulder
That floated
And failed and floated back up again
Into a better life where the little city droids
Buzzed around the town
Her boys were there living better than her fare
She was ambitious
From the lanes of poverty
To her rich uncle Tom Cobely and all
Inherited some money
Tasted the honey
And controlled her aches and pains
With the common strain of marijuana
Forgetting all the human stains
That wash away from her brain
When it rains
Manna from Heaven
Marijuana from Devon
To live amongst
the unleavened lawns of Shepton
