Youre A Queer One Julie Jordan Lyrics

Youre A Queer One Julie Jordan lyrics

Barbara] 

 Julie, Julie!  Do you like him? 

  

 [Shirley] 

 I don't know. 

  

 [Barbara] 

 Did you like it when he talked to you today, 

 When he put you on the carousel that way, mm mm mm 

 Did you like that? 

  

 [Shirley] 

 I'd rather not say. 

  

 [Barbara] 

 You're a queer one, Julie Jordan, 

 You were quieter and deeper than a well 

 An' ye never tell me nuthin'! 

  

 [Shirley] 

 There's nuthin' that I keer to choose to tell. 

  

 [Barbara] 

 You been acting most peculiar, 

 Every morning you're awake ahead of me, 

 Always settin' by the winder. 

  

 [Shirley] 

 I like to watch the river meet the sea. 

  

 [Barbara] 

 When we work in the mill, weavin' at the loom 

 You gaze absent-minded at the roof 

 And half the time your shuttle gets twisted in the threads, 

 'Till you can't tell the warp from the woof. 

  

 [Shirley] 

 'Taint so. 

  

 [Barbara] 

 You're a queer one, Julie Jordan, 

 You won't ever tell a body what you think. 

 You're as tight-lipped as an oyster, 

 And as silent as an old Sahara spink
