My name is Leslie Anne Levine My mother birthed me down a dry revine My mother birthed me far too soon Born at nine and dead at noon Fifteen years gone now I still wander this parapet And shake my rattle bone Fifteen years gone now I still cling to the petticoats Of the girl who died with me On the roofs above the streets The only love I've known's a chimney sweep Lost and lodged inside a flue Back in 1842 Fifteen years gone now I still wail from these catacombs And curse my mother's name Fifteen years gone now Still a wastrel mesallied Has brought this fate on me My name is Leslie Anne Levine I've got no one left to mourn for me Letras de cancionesMy body lies inside its grave In a ditch not far away Fifteen years gone now I still wander this parapet And shake my rattle bone Fifteen years gone now I still cling to the petticoats Of the girl who died with me From Letras Mania
