Mockingbird Lyrics
I won me a mocking bird a mocking bird a mocking bird
I won me a mocking bird
when I gambled all night long
Mocking bird was a talking bird,
Squawking bird, a squawking bird.
Mocking bird was a squawking bird
squawking all night long
I tried for the money,
but I just wasn’t able.
Had two more drinks and then
I slipped under the table
and she mocked me all night long.
Drinks served by a Chinese girl, Chinese Girl, a Chinese Girl
Drinks served by a Chinese girl
She was Chinese all night long
She said ‘you can look my boy
but you can’t touch.
You got the jack some five and a couple of threes
and I got the royal flush.’
She rocked me all night long.
I won me a mocking bird
when I gambled all night long
Mocking bird was a talking bird,
Squawking bird, a squawking bird.
Mocking bird was a squawking bird
squawking all night long
but I just wasn’t able.
Had two more drinks and then
I slipped under the table
and she mocked me all night long.
Drinks served by a Chinese girl
She was Chinese all night long
She said ‘you can look my boy
but you can’t touch.
You got the jack some five and a couple of threes
and I got the royal flush.’

Brilliant song. Sounds like it's about a whore maybe?
The last line is "she MOCKED me all night long"
This song's about Carl being a woman.
