The Libertines - Mocking bird lyrics

rate me

I won me a mockingbird, a mockingbird, a mockingbird

I won me a mockingbird, when I gambled all night long

Mockingbird was squaking bird, squaking bird, squaking bird

Mockingbird was squaking bird, squaking all night long

I tried for the money

And I just wasn't able

Had two more drinks and then

I slipped under the table

And she mocked me all night long

Drinks served by a Chinese girl, Chinese girl, Chinese girl

Drinks served by a Chinese girl, Chinese all night long

She said "You can look my boy, see you can't touch

You got a jack a five and a couple of threes

I got the royal flush"

She mocked me all night long

I won me a mockingbird, a mockingbird, a mockingbird

I won me a mockingbird, when I gambled all night long

Mockingbird was squaking bird, squaking bird, squaking bird

Mockingbird was squaking bird, squaking all night long

I tried for the money

And I just wasn't able

Had two more drinks and then

I slipped under the table

And she mocked me all night long
