Jesse Winchester - Eulalie lyrics

rate me

Eulalie just loves attention

She's a child in that respect

She's a girl whose pretty looks

Have been a chain around her neck

'Cause with all the boys who want her

Why she'll never notice me

And I could really love you, Eulalie

Eulalie was daddy's daughter

She's her daddy's daughter still

And they live in careless comfort

Somewhere high upon the hill

But the boys who court her ain't no count

Oh, I wish she could see

'Cause I could really love you, Eulalie

Eulalie, if you only knew me

You could see right through me

You'd see I'm sincere

Eulalie, I feel like I know you

I wish I could show you

Hey look over here

Eulalie, Eulalie, Eulalie

I could watch her from a distance

And I'd know just how she feels

I could love her in my mind

Till I believed that it was real

And I know that all she's missing

Is a steady boy like me

'Cause I could really love you, Eulalie

Eulalie, if you only knew me

You could see right through me

You'd see I'm sincere

Eulalie, I feel like I know you

I wish I could show you

Hey, look over here

Eulalie, Eulalie, Eulalie
