Richard Thompson - Needle And Thread
“I see young girls with old faces, I see good girls in bad places.” Yep, the narrator of this ditty is a dirty old man oogling girls all over the place. He’s begging for a needle and thread “sew his soul back together again.” I’m just kidding, making fun of all the old men here. The actual story is about his woman leaving him and he’s pining for her, and none of the girls are the woman he really wants, but he’s hoping to sew his soul back together. Shoutout for “I’ll Never Give It Up.” Richard Thompson
