Jason James - Miss Pilkington’s Maid

Copied!

In an old village shop, selling bottles of pop
I saw this most beautiful creature
She was ringing the till for Miss Pilkington's bill
And I wanted to touch out and reach her

She crosses the street, she follows her feet
And never a look left or right
If only she glanced just once in my way
She’d see I was not outta site

She gets her off day once a week
If my plans work, that's when we'll meet

Ba ba-ba-ba

Miss Pilkington’s maid, Miss Pilkington's maid
I thought she would never love me
But now I can see that she turned out to be
A girl who was never above me

Whеn Miss Pilkington died, and everyonе cried
Oh who will inherit her money
But my love was the air, we were wed then and there
And we thought it was all rather funny

Please stop the ringing of the till
So they can read Miss Pilkington's will
Ba ba-ba-ba

Miss Pilkington's maid, Miss Pilkington's maid
I thought she would never love me
Miss Pilkington's maid, Miss Pilkington's maid
I thought she would never love me

Miss Pilkington's maid, Miss Pilkington’s maid
Miss Pilkington’s maid, Miss Pilkington's maid
