The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan
[00:00.00]The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan - Henry Eve Band
[00:09.00]The mornin' sun touched lightly on the eyes of Lucy Jordan
[00:17.00]In her white suburban bedroom
[00:22.00]In a white suburban town
[00:26.00]As she lay there 'neath the covers
[00:30.00]Dreaming of a thousand lovers
[00:35.00]'Til the world turned to orange
[00:39.00]And the room went spinnin' round
[00:45.00]At the age of 37 ooh
[00:50.00]She realised she'd never ride through Paris ooh
[00:56.00]In a sports car ooh
[00:58.00]With the warm wind in her hair ooh
[01:04.00]So she let the phone keep ringin'
[01:08.00]And she sat there softly singin'
[01:13.00]Pretty nursery rhymes she'd memorised
[01:17.00]In her daddy's easy chair
[01:24.00]Her husband he was off to work
[01:28.00]And the kids were off to school
[01:32.00]And there were oh so many ways
[01:37.00]For her to spend her day
[01:41.00]She could clean the house for hours
[01:45.00]Or rearrange the flowers
[01:50.00]Or run naked through the shady street screaming all the way
[02:00.00]At the age of 37 ooh
[02:05.00]She realised she'd never ride through Paris ooh
[02:11.00]In a sports car ooh
[02:13.00]With the warm wind in her hair ooh
[02:19.00]So she let the phone keep ringin'
[02:23.00]And she sat there softly singin'
[02:28.00]Pretty nursery rhymes she'd memorised
[02:33.00]In her daddy's easy chair
[02:39.00]The evening sun touched gently on the eyes of Lucy Jordan
[02:47.00]On the rooftop where she'd climbed
[02:51.00]When all the laughter grew too loud
[02:58.00]And she bowed and curtseyed to the man
[03:02.00]Who reached and offered her his hand
[03:07.00]And led her down to the long white car
[03:11.00]That waited past the crowd
[03:17.00]At the age of 37 ooh
[03:22.00]She realised she'd never ride through Paris ooh
[03:28.00]In a sports car ooh
[03:30.00]With the warm wind in her hair ooh
[03:36.00]So she let the phone keep ringin'
[03:41.00]And she sat there softly singin'
[03:45.00]Pretty nursery rhymes she'd memorised
[03:50.00]In her daddy's easy chair
