Ellis Paul

Ellis Paul (born Paul Plissey; January 14, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter and folk musician. Born in Aroostook County, Maine, Paul is a key figure in what has become known as the Boston school of songwriting, a literate, provocative and urbanely romantic folk-pop style that helped ignite the folk revival of the 1990s. His pop music songs have appeared in movies and on television, bridging the gap between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. more »

I get this message on my message machine that she's cooking dinner tonight  
So I go out and pick up a bottle of wine
I'm kind of nervous, I've run out things to say when I get there
So I say "I like your wooden floor boards"

She is laying in flannel sheets
Brass bed speaks "come on lie in me" 
And there I'm standing naked and meek stalling
She then says lovingly:

If I were the queen and you were just the jester fool 
I would love you as my king, just because I do I do I do love you

Six a.m. the alarm clock goes off and 
I realize that I am not where I usually am at 6 o'clock in the morning 
I kiss her goodbye and grab um my clothes 
And run out in the street half dressed 
And I'm probably gonna be late for work

Morning out on her naked street 
Old lady on the corner just stares at me 
I guess she ain't never seen barefoot feet 
Or heard the words that she sung to me

If I were the queen and you were just the jester fool 
I would love you as my king, because I do I do love you I love you  
I do I do I do love you, I do I do I do love you , I love you
