Cross-Eyed Mary |
| Who would be a poor man, a beggarman, a thief |
| If he had a rich man in his hand |
| And who would steal the candy |
| From a laughing baby’s mouth |
| If he could take it from the money man |
| Cross-eyed Mary |
| Goes jumping in again |
| She signs no contract |
| But she always plays the game |
| She dines in Hampstead village |
| On expense accounted gruel |
| And the jack-knife barber |
| Drops her off at school |
| Hey |
| Laughing in the playground |
| Gets no kicks from little boys |
| Would rather make it with a letching grey |
| Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung |
| Who watches through the railings as they play |
| Hey |
| Cross-eyed Mary |
| Finds it hard to get along |
| She’s a poor man’s rich girl |
| And she’ll do it for a song |
| She’s a rich man stealer |
| But her favour’s good and strong |
| She’s the Robin Hood of Highgate |
| Helps the poor man get along |
| Hey |
| Laughing in the playground |
| Gets no kicks from little boys |
| Would rather make it with a letching grey |
| Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung |
| Who watches through the railings as they play |
| Hey |
| Cross-eyed Mary |
| Goes jumping in again |
| She signs no contract |
| But she always plays the game |
| She dines in Hampstead village |
| On expense accounted gruel |
| And the jack-knife barber |
| Drops her off at school |
| Hey |
| Cross-eyed Mary |
| Oh Mary |
| Oh Cross-eyed Mary |
