Laverstonian Spiritual Blues


Laverstonian Spiritual Blues

There’s a little girl crying,
sitting on the stair
she’s lost her loving mother
and Daddy doesn’t care.
She thinks her heart is breaking
‘cause the agony is hard to bear.

There’s a little girl crying,
standing in the hall
she needs someone to help her
but don’t know who to call.
She’s got herself a bible
but it’s no help at all.

There’s a little girl crying,
she needs her bed and board
fed up with ghosts and monsters
making up a hoard
She’s going to get some vengeance
starting with a sword.
