      Lady writer on the TV
      Talk about the virgin mary
      Reminded me of you
      Expectation left a come on too
    
    Lady writer on the TV
    She had another quality
    The way you used to look
    And I know you never read a book
    
      Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
      And I recall my fall from grace
      Another time another place
    
    Lady writer on the TV
    She had all her brains and the beauty
    The pictures does not fit
    You'd talk to me when you felt like this
    
    Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
    And I recall my fall from grace
    Another time another place
            Your rich old man,
            You know he'd a call her a dead wringer
            You got the same command
            Plus your mother was a mess in life
    
    Solo: A / B /C#m etc
    
    Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
    And I recall my fall from grace
    Another time another place
    
    Lady writer on the TV
    She knew all about history
    You couldn't hardly write your name
    I think I want it just the same
    
    Lady writer on the TV
    Talking about the virgin mary
    You know I'm talking about you and me
    Lady writer on the TV
