"Morgana Jones" lyrics
"Morgana Jones"
Morgana Jones was a middle-aged woman
She was ugly as she could be
Looking for a kid about half her age
To show him what there was to see
Morgana knew more tricks than Houdini
She could make a blind man see
Make a crippled man run them long high hurdles
And Morgana's coming after me
Morgana, leave me alone
I don't need none of your action
Morgana, leave me alone
I got my own kind of satisfaction
I gave her ten dollars for an hour and a half
My God, it sure went fast
Morgana kept her eyes on her watch
She knew how long I'd last
Many was the time I'd holler for help
It was that or the undertaker
And morning would come and I'd tiptoe out
And pray to God I wouldn't wake her
Morgana, leave me alone
I don't need none of your action
Morgana, leave me alone
I got my own kind of satisfaction
Now that I think about poor Morgana
She really wasn't all that bad
I know she's not the best I've known
But she's sure not the worst I've had
It really didn't matter when she said it was over
I didn't have to bother
The thing that hurt when she looked at me
Said I'd never be as good as my father
Morgana, leave me alone
I don't need none of your action
Morgana, leave me alone
I got my own kind of satisfaction
Don't you talk about Morgana
