Aidan Knight - Margaret downe lyrics

Margaret in the morning Sleeping on her side Tossin' men like nickles Into an ever-rising tide I guess she was a dentist Before she fell in love Freezin' leaden smiles Just to give 'em up Oh oh oh Margaret downe Margaret at the office Margaret at eighteen She said sit right down a minute She said lemme clean your teeth So we settled down in bozeman In the corner of the world And we raised a couple children But we lost a little girl Oh oh oh Margaret downe Heartsick in montana we slowly grew apart The grocery clerk in moncton As you were dancing in the bar You rushed him to the courtroom Before the bed was cold And defrosted out my windshield When you smile then lemme know Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Margaret downe Many cavities pulling At our marriage's tender mouth And at the root of all the problems Was a man across the can*l Margaret left the practice Late in '86 And I left behind the midwest And forgot we ever kissed Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Margaret downe I knew she changed her number But couldn't shake the cough The doctor gave her 6 weeks Which only made her shrug it off Resting in her 5th week I brought her bu*tercups There was too much to say between us And I'd only f** it up So I stared up at the ceiling And I held her little hands And you knew that I forgave you For making other plans Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Oh oh oh Margaret downe Margaret in the morning Sleeping on her side Strolled into the waves Of an ever-rising tide
