Another Horsedreamers' Blues Lyrics - Recovering The Satellites - Counting Crows

Margery's dreaming of the middle of the day 

Tiyuri to win perfect dozen to place 

Money is the matter that's been on her mind 

Time ticks by her one race at a time 

She's tryin' to be a good girl 

And give 'em what they want 

But Margery's dreaming of horses 

Lookin' at a green sky, sun like a red eye 

Bright blue horses are the fortune she lives by 

She's tired and lonely, scarred and depressed 

Her visions of one day go racing the next 

She's tryin' to be a good girl 

And give 'em what they want 

But Margery's dreaming of horses 

Margie doesn't say anything all the way home 

So afraid she'll awake to find she's all alone 

Margery's wingspan's all feathers and coke cans 

And TV dinners and letters she won't send 

And every race night is shot through with sunlight 

Tryin' to hit the big one, one last time tonight 

For drunken fathers and stupid mothers and 

Boys who can't tell one girl from another 

So she takes her pills careful and round 

One of these days she's gonna throw the whole bottle down 

But she's tryin' to be a good girl 

And give 'em what they want 

But Margery's dreaming of 

Tryin' to be a good girl 

And give 'em what they want 

But Margery's dreaming of horses
