Song For Marlene (music: Steve Gilmore/Lyrics Sam Shepard)

Marlene Deitrich you took my breath away
If I was born in another day
The dogs couldn't keep me away from your door
The dogs couldn't keep me away from your door

Marlene you're so fine x 3

some say the stars in the skies
are only there because we've got eyes
but I can see your star upon the screen
If I was blind as a bean

Marlene you're so fine x 3

I'd bury my nose in your furs
I'd swallow you whole with your pearls
I'd eat up your dukes and earls
I'd even give up all my girls for you

Marlene you're so fine x 3
