Lyrics Scarlet Begonias

As I was walking 'round

Grosvenor Square

Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air

From the other direction she was calling my eye

It could be an illusion but I might as well try

Might as well try

She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes

And I knew without asking she was into the blues

She wore scarlet begonias

Tucked into her curls

I knew right away

She was not like other girls

Other girls

In the thick of the evening

When the dealing got rough

She was too pat to open and too cool to bluff

As I picked up my matches and was closing the door

I had one of those flashes

I'd been there before

Been there before

Well I ain't often right but I've never been wrong

It seldom turns out the way it does in the song

Once in a while

You get shown the light in the strangest of places

If you look at it right

Well there ain't nothing wrong with the way she moves

Or scarlet begonias

Or a touch of the blues

And there's nothing wrong with the look that's in her eye

I had to learn the hard way to let her pass by

Let her pass by

The wind in the willows played tea for two

The sky was yellow and the sun was blue

Strangers stopping strangers just to shake their hand

Everybody's playing in the Heart of Gold Band

Heart of Gold Band

Ah ah ah

Ha ha ah ah ah ah ah

Ooh ooh hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo

Hoo ooh ooh

Ah ah ah ah ha ah

Ha ah ah ah oh ho

Ah ah ah ah ah ah la la la la

Oh ho ho ho oh oh ho
