Frank Turner - Peggy Sang The Blues lyrics

Peggy came to me in my sleep In the middle of the night, On a friday night last week she whispered "hush child now don't be scared" I got me a few words of wisdom that I came back to share and she said It doesn't matter where you come from, It matters where you go No-one gets remembered For the things they didn't do I said Peggy won't you stay here for a while We can drink whisky, we can play cards and we can get wild She said we'll play poker and we'll play for keeps I've only played angels lately and they never let me cheat It doesn't matter where you come from, It matters where you go No-one gets remembered in this listless life For the things they didn't do And you can say I had a good time And you can say I had cla** And you can say that I was born beneath A ceiling made of gla** But I always kept an open house And yeah I always did right by my friends And when I got to St Peter's gate I told the people I'm not the one who needs to make amends 'Cause better times are coming Better times ahead And no-one gets remembered, my d**hless child Don't waste too long in bed And Peggy said It doesn't matter where you come from, It matters where you go No-one gets remembered, in this listless loveless life For the things they didn't do (no no no no no) Peggy sang the blues, as I drifted off while Peggy sang the blues, as I drifted off while Peggy sang the blues, as I drifted off while Peggy sang the blues, Peggy sang the blues
