Songtexte: Van Morrison. The Philosopher's Stone. Madame Joy.

All the men would turn their head
When she walked down the street
Clothes are fine and hair that shine
Smiling, oh so sweet, smiling, oh so sweet

Got a taste of all religion
Comes on with the new
In her hair a yellow ribbon
And she's decked out all in blue
Oh yes, in decked out all in blue

Steppin' lightly then steppin' brightly
With her books in hand
Going to the university to teach them
Help them understand
And are helping 'em understand

And all the kids would love to see her
Follow in her steps
And tell her stories and adore her
Climb in through the fence
Climb in through the fence

Here she comes walking
Here she comes talking
I do believe it's Madame Joy

Walking past that old street corner
And she's looking for her boy
Oh yes' she is looking for her boy

Steppin' lightly then steppin' brightly
With her books in hand
Going to the university to teach them
Help them understand
Yeah, yeah. help them understand

I was looking at the way she moved me
And I was seeing every side
Tell me that can I learn the language?
Have you got the mind, have you got the mind?

Here she comes walking
Here she comes talking
I do believe it's Madame Joy

She's walking by that old street corner
And she's looking for her boy
Oh yeah, looking for her boy

You know all the men would turn their head
When she walked down the street
Clothes refined and hair that shine
And smiling, oh so sweet, oh yes, she's smiling, oh so sweet
Smiling, smiling, oh so sweet, yeah, yeah, yeah
Smiling, smiling, oh so sweet

And all the men would
And all the men would turn their head around
When that woman walked down the street
When that woman walked down the street

When that when that woman walked
When that woman walked when that woman walked
When that woman walked when that woman walked
When that woman walked, what she wore

When that woman when that woman, when that woman
When that woman when that woman, when that woman
When that woman when that woman, when that woman
When that woman when that woman walked

She just walked
Just kept on walking down the street, yeah
When she walked when she walked down
When she walked on down
