Hey Lady Godiva lyrics

(Shel Silverstein)

Hey Lady Godiva, ridin` throughout town
Naked on your big white horse
With your long hair hangin` down
Lady Godiva, you say you`re frightened
and so shy
I hate to bust your bubble but you
Sure picked a funny place to hide

Hey Lady Godiva, lookin` for a place
Where no one wants your body
And nobody knows your face
Lady Godiva, you say you wanna be loved
For what`s inside
I don?`t know much about horses but you
Sure picked a funny place to ride

Every man`s just a clutchin` hand
Reachin` out to grab you
Every man`s a quiverin` lance
Tryin` hard to stab you - don` let `em nab you

Hey Lady Godiva, lookin` kind of scared
You showed `em all your talents
And nobody seems to care
Lady Godiva, could it be no-one wants to ride
Come to think it over
You may have picked the perfect place to hide
