Lady Don't Fall Backwards Songtext
von Peter Doherty

Once upon a time
When the cold wind that blows
When the cold wind that blows
In my heart was a summer′s breeze
And she would meet me in Chinatown
For opium and tea
And she always brought me flowers


I sped you those old ballads
Songs that I couldn't play
Every gyro day
Dress me like a ladyboy
And take me high out of the way
Don′t let the hordes chase the new deal away

No, if we make love in the morning
I see your eyes look like two marbles in your head
But lady don't you fall backwards
Come on and fall into my arms
No don't you fall backwards
I wouldn′t want for you to come to any harm
Oh tell me if darkness comes and I will sing you a song
Or I will love you forever or at least till morning comes

Oh lady don′t you fall backwards
Come on and fall into my arms
Come on and fall into my arms
Come on and fall into my arms
