Drag Queen Blues Songtext

von Richard Digance

My friend George is a drag Queen called Nancy
Pray tell me which are you tonight?
If you're George let's have a game of snooker,
If you're Nancy let's turn out the light.

For George is a foreman in a coal-mine,
But changes when the hooter goes at five
To a snooker-playing friend of yours truly,
To a man I would like to make my wife.

For Nancy brings me midnight satisfaction
And stays with me until the morning light;
The he's off to his work down a coal-shaft,
Where he ain't such a delicate sight.

O Nancy you're the girl that I think of,
But George I know she's part of you,
But it's Nancy not you that I fancy,
Tell me George tell me what can I do?

I'm in love with half a man that's a lady
And the half that ain't no lady is my best friend.
Nancy I would like to share my name with,
But George is not the type I could offend.

So George take off your dress put on your trousers.
I've got to take your Nancy from my head,
So tonight I am dining with another
One half's called Freda and the other half is Fred.
