the dead milkmen - the woman who was also a mongoose lyrics
she was once an attraction at the county fair
and now she sleeps in a box at the top of the stairs
and she loves it here, make no mistake
cause she can earn her keep by chasin’ snakes
and if i wake up late at night
i know that everything will be alright
cause crawling round on my roof
is the woman who is also a mongoose
she was born in may, nineteen years ago
in a little town outside buffalo
but the town folk feared her and they chased her away
and now she’s happy with a place to stay
and if i wake up late at night
i know that everything will be alright
cause crawling round on my roof
is the woman who is also a mongoose
she trapped a rattler out behind the barn
and she let it go without any harm
then she came inside for a cup of tea
and she spoke for a while with my brother and me
chasing after field mice, running through the high gr-ss
that’s what she loves to do
and if she’s happy as a mongoose
it shouldn’t bother me or you
and if i wake up late at night
i know that everything will be alright
cause crawling round on my roof
is the woman who is also a mongoose
