Lovesick Lizzie by Michael Franks Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lovesick Lizzie, you will miss me
When they put me in chains down in New Orleans
Better call your dogs off now
This is not fun - take your shotgun
Out of my side - it offends my pride
Let me milk your cow

[Chorus]
Lovesick Lizzie, I get dizzy
Just from the thought of you
I've been kissed and I'm no Christian
I know just what to do
I'm the midnight milkman no need to scream
I just came to deliver a pint of cream

[Verse 2]
This is some trick, if you're lovesick
How come you preen like a star in your jeans?
Were you just born to tease?
You've been flirting, playing dirty
Disguising your wares from the top of the stairs
Oh, opеn your window please
[Chorus]
Lovesick Lizziе, I get dizzy
Just from the thought of you
I've been kissed and I'm no Christian
I know just what to do
I'm the midnight milkman no need to scream
I just came to deliver a pint of cream

[Verse 3]
I don't care if you call the sheriff
I cut down the phone, I dug up my bone
Now it's just you and me
Gonna fly you to the bayou
There's blood in the wind, I'm a dog in the skin
You are a cat up a tree

[Chorus]
Lovesick Lizzie, I get dizzy
Just from the thought of you
I've been kissed and I'm no Christian
I know just what to do
I'm the midnight milkman no need to scream
I just came to deliver a pint of cream
