Alligator Purse
Chely Wright Song Lyrics
(Kenya Slaughter Walker Nick Pellegrino) I called him for days, he didn't answer the phone I drove by his house, I knew he was home A week's worth of papers and mail in the box I thought he was dead, I picked the lock I found him in tears in the dark on his knees With a hole in his chest where his heart used to be And he said... Don't call the doctor, don't call the nurse Call for the lady with the alligator purse She knows the spell to lift this curse Go find the lady with the alligator purse In an old stone house off 21st I found the lady with the alligator purse She answered the door, said I know who you are She lit a candle, consulted the stars When I saw her closing that reptile's hide I asked her point-blank, is my friend going to die And she said... I'm not a doctor, I'm not a nurse I'm just the lady with the alligator purse Hope for the best, prepare for the worst So said the lady with the alligator purse She said, look at what happened to Cleopatra When she didn't take my advice And Romeo, Juliet, they didn't get it Too bad, those kids were so nice By the time we got back to my pitiful pal There was no sign of life till he saw the alligator Purse on her arm, the gleam in her eyes She opened the bag, there was nothing inside She said, there's no secret, it's love that I use I just carry this bag because it matches my shoes And she said... Don't call the doctor, don't call the nurse Don't call the lady with the alligator purse Love is the magic of the universe Take it from the lady with the alligator purse Love is the magic of the universe Take it from the lady with the alligator purse The lady with the alligator purse |
