Dan Bern - Little Russian Girl lyrics

God bless you Lana, little Russian girl For talking to me just when I needed it most God bless you Lana, Russian gothic girl For talking to me just when I needed it most I'm sorry that your mama is far away in Russia And she can't come see you and you can't go see her And I'm sorry your first marriage ended in divorce And your first husband felt he had to lock you in a cage And sorry that the second one is making you unhappy 'Cause now your husband doesn't understand his wife at all And most I get so sorry you're married and you can't Drive up the coast tomorrow and lay on your day off But anyway, Lana, God bless you, Lana For talking to me just when I needed it most I'm glad the coffee shop wasn't busy at all You saved me from a night of trying to scrape myself off the wall I just let another one walk out of my life A sweet bird who always kept such a nice nest For a while I came back, but finally I told her Keep your pretty eggs warm for somebody else And now I see her eyes in everybody's eyes And I can't help thinking that I'm just a fool I cried at the strip show, I cried at the stoplights I cried in the howard stern movie I cried Right now I could cling to just about anyone I'm a cla**ic candidate to reb-b-b-b-bound So god bless you lana, little RuI'm the guyssian girl For talking to me just when I needed it most And if you weren't married, I might be with you now And we'd be holding on so tight 'cause if we let go The world would start spinning clear out of control Thanks for talking to me when I needed you most I'm glad the coffee shop wasn't busy at all You saved me from a night of trying to scrape myself off the wall God bless you, Lana, little Russian girl For talking to me just when I needed you most God bless you, Lana, little Russian girl For talking to me just when I needed you most
