Don't call pretty Peggy
She can't hear you no more
Don't leave no message
'Round her back door
They say the Old Laughin' Lady been here before
While she don't keep time
She don't count score
You can't have a cupboard
If there ain't no wall
You got to move
You got no time left to stall
Some say the Old Laughin' Lady dropped by to call
And when she leaves
She leaves nothing at all
There's a fever on the freeway
Blacks out the night
There's a slippin' on the stairway
Just don't feel right
And there's a rumbling in the bedroom
There's a flashing of lights
There's the Old Laughin' Lady
Everything is alright
