Black Pearl Lyrics & Tabs by Tom Russell
Black Pearl
guitar chords lyrics
Have you seen Miranda? She's walking through the town
She has got one green eye, the other eye is brown
And as she walks the air grows warm, men stare down from rooms
She destroys the hidden line between the wise man and the fool
She's a black pearl, she's a black pearl,
She's a black pearl... she's not my girl
They say down in Tango town, the accordion is king
Where Astor Piazzola plays on the Bandoneon
And outside 'neath an olive tree the dust and sand it whirls
She tangos with the moonlight, that dangerous Black Pearl
She's a black pearl, she's a black pearl,
She's a black pearl... she's not my girl
Don't talk to me of politics, don't talk to me of war
For I have seen her secret things upon the shower door
I've seen presidents corrupted, I've seen kings down on their knees
Don't talk to me of politics, don't talk to me of war
For I have seen her secret things upon the shower door
I've seen presidents corrupted, I've seen kings down on their knees
Heh, it wasn't revolution - lust was the disease
For some Black Pearl...
