Back to 1971. JT, Aqualung lp, what fun. We grew up listening and playing rock band in a farmer's field with cowbells also. Thank you. great intro with flute and cymbals brushed. The lighting is ***** The lyrics were easy to understand. Nice audio/video mix. The effects and pics of band are cool. The cowbells sound like "dinnertime" Nice job on the skins. As always, thank you for sharing, sir.
Who would be a poor man, a beggar-man, a thief If he had a rich man in his hand? And who would steal the candy From a laughing baby's mouth If he could take it from the money man Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again She signs no contract but she always plays the game She dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel And the jack-knife barber, drops her off at school Laughing in the playground, gets no kicks from little boys Would rather make it with a letching grey Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung Who watches through the railings as they play, hey Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along She's a poor man's rich girl and she'll do it for a song She's a rich man stealer but her favor's good and strong She's the Robin Hood of Highgate, helps the poor man get along, hey Laughing in the playground, gets no kicks from little boys Would rather make it with a letching grey Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung Who watches through the railings as they play, hey Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again She signs no contract but she always plays the game She dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel And the jack-knife barber, drops her off at school, hey Cross-eyed Mary Oh Mary, oh cross-eyed Mary Cross-Eyed Mary Lyrics as written by Ian Anderson

Who would be a poor man, a beggar-man, a thief
If he had a rich man in his hand?
And who would steal the candy
From a laughing baby's mouth
If he could take it from the money man
Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again
She signs no contract but she always plays the game
She dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel
And the jack-knife barber, drops her off at school
Laughing in the playground, gets no kicks from little boys
Would rather make it with a letching grey
Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung
Who watches through the railings as they play, hey
Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along
She's a poor man's rich girl and she'll do it for a song
She's a rich man stealer but her favor's good and strong
She's the Robin Hood of Highgate, helps the poor man get along, hey
Laughing in the playground, gets no kicks from little boys
Would rather make it with a letching grey
Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung
Who watches through the railings as they play, hey
Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again
She signs no contract but she always plays the game
She dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel
And the jack-knife barber, drops her off at school, hey
Cross-eyed Mary
Oh Mary, oh cross-eyed Mary
