West Country Girl Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

With a crooked smile and a heart-shaped face 

Comes from the West country where the birds sing bass 

She's got a house-big heart where we all live 

Plead and council and forgive 

Her widow's peak, her lips I've kissed 

Her glove of bones at her wrist 

That I have held in my hand 

Her Spanish fly and her monkey gland 

Her Godly body and its fourteen stations 

That I have embraced, her palpitations 

Her unborn baby crying, Mummy 

Against the rubble of her body 

Her lovely lidded eyes I've sipped 

Her fingernails, all pink and chipped 

Her accent which I'm told is broad 

That I have heard and has been poured 

Into my human heart and filled me 

With love up to the brim and killed me 

And rebuilt me back anew 

With something to look forward to 

Well, who could ask much more than that? 

A West country girl with a big fat cat 

That looks into her eyes of green 

And meows, He loves you, then meows again
