Margaretta

Margaretta was a lady who thought she knew better
Her husband couldn't stand her so he went off and left her
She never treated him right
She came home drunk and beat him with a letter
But no-one believed him cause she's light as a feather
Oh how this is wrong
She kicked and punched him all night long
He had no idea what was going on
Now he's gone

She spends the night in the town
Finds a man to fool around
Wonders why she can't settle down
She breaks them and tears them down
Until there's no-one around
Oh Margaretta are you proud

She hits them to their knees
And wonders why they always leave
Oh Margaretta can't you see

Margaretta was a lady who thought she knew better
Her husband couldn't stand her so he went off and left her
She never treated him right
She came home drunk and beat him with a letter
But no-one believed him cause she's light as a feather
Oh how this is wrong
She kicked and punched him all night long
He had no idea what was going on
Now he's gone

She hurts every man she sees
Then she plays the victim you see
Oh Margaretta let them be

She hits them to their knees
And wonders why they always leave
Oh Margaretta can't you see

It's you it's not them
So let's not try to pretend
You blame all men but it's not true
Oh Margaretta it's you
It's you
It's you
It's you

Oh Margaretta
Oh Margaretta

She spends the night in the town
Finds a man to fool around
Wonders why she can't settle down
She breaks them and tears them down
Until there's no-one around
Oh Margaretta are you proud
Oh Margaretta are you proud
Oh Margaretta are you proud
