Procol Harum - Memorial Drive lyrics

rate me

All for a mermaid's locket, too much to hold

Drink the seals' blood from the ocean,

Drink the whole ocean dry

Steal the moonshine from the night-time,

Steal the sun from the sky

Black-skinned warrior, zulu queen

Sold for a silver dollar, shipped across the sea

Worked like a mexican donkey,

Used like a hole in the ground

Branded her skin like she didn't feel a thing

Crying without a sound
