There's a lady 'cross the water She's driving me from my home Oh her name is Amerita And her faces are many more than one Though she dragged me from the country Spinning stories of fortune and fame Though she new she didn't want me Tell me lady Amerita what's your game? Say I go wondering, wonder only seven Don't you lose your sense of direction Lose the way to go She's leaving in the morning She's leaving 'round about seven Hope she don't lose a sense of direction Lose the way to go
