"You're looking at me sideways
I can see you don't approve
Oh yeah I did everything
They told me not to do"
I met her in a bar way back in 1982
She was wearing a crooked wig
And had a lot of old tattoos
She says, "Why are you way over there?
Come on over and pull up a chair!
She says, "you've got nothing else to do!"
"You know, Leonard Cohen sent me roses, how about you?
That's right, Leonard Cohen sent me roses, how about you?"
She asked me for a cigarette
I could tell she'd had a few
So I gave her a cigarette and she said
"Can you give me 2?"
I ordered up another
I could tell I'd be awhile
Oh well what the hell, I thought
And the bartender winked and smiled
"Well I may not look like much today
But if you'd seen me back in my day
Then you would know who you're talking to!
Leonard Cohen sent me roses, how about you?
That's right, Leonard Cohen sent me roses, how about you?"
I said well I've had enough for today
I got up, and as I walked away
She said, "It's not braggin' if it's true!"
"You know Leonard Cohen sent me roses, how about you?
And I rolled a joint for Willie Nelson, how about you?
And Marlon Brando sent his regards to me, not you!
That's right, Leonard Cohen sent me roses, how about you?"
"You're looking at me sideways
