Lyrics

"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 two?" 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 Well then you would know who you're talking to You know, 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! Yep, Leonard Cohen sent me roses, how about you?"
