Lyrics

[Verse 1]
As I walkin' down Grosvenor Square
Not a chill to the winter but a nip to the air
From the other direction, she was callin' my eye
Could be an illusion but I might as well try, might as well try
[Verse 2]
She had her rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
And I knew without askin' she was into the blues
She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
I knew right away she was not like other girls, other girls
[Verse 3]
In the heat of the evening when the dealing got rough
She was too pat to open and too cool to bluff
As I picked up my matches and was closin' the door
I had one of those flashes, like i'd been there before, been there before
[Verse 4]
Well, I ain't often right but I've never been wrong
Seldom turns out the way it does in the song
Once in a while, you get shown the light
In the strangest of places if you look at it right, look at it right
Look at it right, look at it right
[Verse 5]
Well, there ain't nothing wrong with the way that she moves
Four scarlet begonias with a touch of the blues
There's nothing wrong with the way she called by
Had to learn the hard way, hard to let her pass by, pass by
[Verse 6]
The wind in the willow's playin' Tea for Two
The sky was yellow and the sun was blue
Strangers stoppin' strangers just to shake their hand
Everybody's playin' in the heart of gold band, heart of gold band
Written by: Jerry Garcia, Robert Hunter
