Van Morrison - Madame George Lyrics

Send "Madame George" ringtone to your cell

Down on cyprus avenue

With a childlike vision leaping into view

Clicking clacking of the high heeled shoe

Ford & fitzroy madame george

Marching with the soldier boy behind

Hes much older with hat on drinking wine

And that smell of sweet perfume comes drifting through

The cool night air like shalimar

And outside theyre making all the stops

The kids out in the street collecting bottle-tops

Gone for cigarettes and matches in the shops

Happy taken madame george

Thats when you fall

Whoa thats when you fall

Yeah thats when you fall

When you fall into a trance

A sitting on a sofa playing games of chance

With your folded arms and history books you glance

Into the eyes of madame george

And you think you found the bag

Youre getting weaker and your knees begin to sag

In the corner playing dominoes in drag

The one and only madame george

And then from outside the frosty window raps

She jumps up and says lord have mercy I think its the cops

And immediately drops everything she gots

Down into the street below

And you know you gotta go

On that train from dublin up to sandy row

Throwing pennies at the bridges down below

And the rain hail sleet and snow

Say goodbye to madame george

Dry your eye for madame george

Wonder why for madame george

And as you leave the room is filled with music laughing music

Dancing music all around the room

And all the little boys come around walking away from it all

So cold

And as youre about to leave

She jumps up and says hey love you forgot your gloves

And the gloves to love to love the gloves...

To say goodbye to madame george

Dry your eye for madame george

Wonder why for madame george

Dry your eyes for madame george

Say goodbye in the wind and the rain on the back street

In the backstreet in the back street

Say goodbye to madame george

In the backstreet in the back street in the back street

Down home down home in the back street

Gotta go

Say goodbye goodbye goodbye

Dry your eye your eye your eye your eye your eye...

Say goodbye to madame george

And the loves to love to love the love

Say goodbye

Oooooo

Mmmmmmm

Say goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye to madame george

Dry your eye for madame george

Wonder why for madame george

The loves to love the loves to love the loves to love...

Say goodbye goodbye

Get on the train

Get on the train the train the train...

This is the train this is the train...

Whoa say goodbye goodbye....

Get on the train get on the train...
