Calvary Cross (Live)

Richard Thompson

[Verse 1]
I was under the Calvary Cross
And the pale-faced lady, she said to me
I've watched you with my one green eye
And I'll hurt you till you need me

[Verse 2]
You scuff your heels and you spit on your shoes
Oh, you do nothing with reason
One day you catch a train
Oh, it never leaves the station

[Chorus]
Everything you do
Oh, everything you do
You do for me

[Verse 3]
Now you can make believe on your tin whistle
Ah, and you can be my broom boy
Ah, scrub me till I shine in the dark
And I'll be your light till doomsday

[Verse 4]
It's a black cat cross your path
Oh, why don't you follow?
My claw's in you and my light's in you
Ah, this is your first day of sorrow

[Chorus]
Everything you do
Oh, everything you do
You do for me
