Lady writer on the TV
  Talk about the virgin mary
  Reminded me of you
  Expectation left a come on too
    Lady writer on the TV
  She had another quality
  The way you used to look
  And I know you never read a book
    Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
  And I recall my fall from grace
  Another time another place
    Lady writer on the TV
  She had all her brains and the beauty
  The pictures does not fit
  You'd talk to me when you felt like this
    Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
  And I recall my fall from grace
  Another time, another place
  Your rich old man
  You know he'd a call her a dead wringer
  You got the same command
  Plus your mother was a mess in life
    Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
  And I recall my fall from grace
  Another time another place
    Lady writer on the TV
  She knew all about history
  You couldn't hardly write your name
  I think I want it just the same
    Lady writer on the TV
  Talking about the virgin mary
  You know I'm talking about you and me
