Lovesick Lizzie

(álbum: Michael Franks - 1973)

Lovesick Lizzie, you will miss me
When they put me in chains down in New Orleans
Better call your dogs off now
This is not fun take your shotgun
Out of my side it offends my pride
Let me milk your cow

Lovesick Lizzie, I get dizzy
Just from the thought of you
I've been kissed and I'm no Christian
I know just what to do
I'm the midnight milkman no need to scream
I just came to deliver a pint of cream

This is some trick, if you're lovesick
How come you preen like a star in your jeans?
Were you just born to tease?
You've been flirting, playing dirty
Disguising your wares from the top of the stairs
Oh, open your window please

Lovesick Lizzie, I get dizzy
Just from the thought of you
I've been kissed and I'm no Christian
I know just what to do
I'm the midnight milkman no need to scream
I just came to deliver a pint of cream

I don't care if you call the sheriff
I cut down the phone, I dug up my bone
Now it's just you and me
Gonna fly you to the bayou
There's blood in the wind, I'm a dog in the skin
You are a cat up a tree

Lovesick Lizzie, I get dizzy
Just from the thought of you
I've been kissed and I'm no Christian
I know just what to do
I'm the midnight milkman no need to scream
I just came to deliver a pint of cream
