Vagabond Ways is a rock album by Marianne Faithfull. This is her first album of original material since A Secret Life (1994). This work, produced by Daniel Lanois and Mark Howard, is a balladry-like extension of her then neo-cabaret persona, interpreting songs by herself and legendary songwriters of her generation, like Pink Floyd's Roger Waters, Leonard Cohen and the songwriting duo Elton John/Bernie Taupin.
Oh, doctor please, oh, doctor please. I drink and I take drugs, I love sex and I move around a lot, I had my first baby at fourteen, And yes, I guess I do have vagabond ways. Yes, I guess I do have vagabond (бродячий) ways.
Oh, doctor please, oh, doctor please, I think you've made a mistake, I'm fine and I don't need people, You don't understand all my choices, But yes, I guess I do have vagabond ways, Yes, I guess I do have vagabond ways.
Please, don't lock me up, Please, let me stay free. If you let me go I promise I'll never come back, I'll take a ship across the sea. I'm young and poor, and yes I'm afraid, But I'll stay myself and keep my vagabond ways.
It was a long time ago, they took her child away and she was sterelized. She died of the drink and the drugs And yes, I guess she kept those vagabond ways, Yes, I guess she kept those vagabond ways, Yes, I guess she kept those vagabond ways.
