The musings of a crazy lady from Hamilton, Ohio. "Madwoman in the attic" is a reference to the book "Jane Eyre," and our world where we try to silence and "lock away" the mentally ill.

I'm No Angel
I love Mae West! If I could be any actress in history, it would be this gifted writer and commedienne. Here are the lyrics:
Aw, come on, let me cling on to ya like a vine
Make that lowdown music trickle off your spine
Baby, I can warm ya with this love of mine
I'm no angel
Aw, let me feel your fingers runnin' through my hair
I can give you kisses till you walk on air
Love me, honey, love me till I just don't care
I'm no angel
I'll take your blues, stomp down your troubles
Rock you with a steady roll
Here's your ???nation, drink my affection
You're my new ace in the hole
Aw, let me have ya now before the night is gone
Come on, flank this joint, so we can carry on
I can make it heaven where the shades are drawn
I'm no angel
(Instrumental Break)
Come on, honey, thrill me like a midnight breeze
Don't care how you do it, babe, just so you please
Take my kisses till your weary heart's at ease
I'm no angel
Let me feel your fingers runnin' through my hair
I can give you kisses till you walk on air
Love me, honey, love me till I just don't care
I'm no angel
Oh, I'll take your blues, stomp down your troubles
Rock you with a steady roll
Here's your ???nation, drink my affection
You're my new ace in the hole
Aw, let me have ya now before the night is gone
Come on, flank this joint, so we can carry on
I can make it heaven where the shades are drawn
I'm no angel
