Another Horsedreamers' Blues

[Verse 1] Margery's dreaming of the middle of the day Tiyuri to win, Perfect Dozen to place Money is the matter that's been on her mind Time ticks by her one race at a time [Chorus] She's trying to be a good girl And give them what they want But Margery's dreaming of horses [Verse 2] Looking at a green sky, sun like a red eye Bright blue horses are the fortune she lives by She's tired and lonely, scarred and depressed Her visions of one day go racing the next [Chorus] [Bridge] Margie doesn't say anything all the way home So afraid she'll awake to find she's all alone [Verse 3] Margery's wingspan's all feathers and coke cans And TV dinners and letters she won't send And every race night is shot through with sunlight Trying to hit the big one, one last time tonight [Verse 4] For drunken fathers and stupid mothers and Boys who can't tell one girl from another So she takes her pills careful and round One of these days she's gonna throw the whole bottle down [Chorus[[x2]
