I was nineteen when I came to town, they called it the Summer of Love They were burning pages, burning flags. The hawks against the doves I took a job in the steamie down on Cauldrum Street I fell in love with a laundry girl who was working next to me
Oh she was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing So fine a breath of wind might blow her away She was a lost child, well, she was running wild She said, "As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay And you wouldn't want me any other way."
Brown hair zig-zag around her face, a look of half-surprise Like a fox caught in the headlights, there was animal in her eyes She said, "Young man, oh can't you see I'm not the factory kind If you don't take me out of here I'll surely lose my mind."

We were camping down the Gower one time, the work was pretty good She thought we shouldn't wait for the frost and I thought maybe we should We were fighting more in those days and tempers reached a pitch And like a fool I let her run with the rambling itch
