Tread on my face if you like little lady
Turn me inside out if you have to baby
But don't you cross me off your list
I am young and I ain't never been kissed
Never been kissed by a lady called Amy
You're far out, you're fab and insane
A woman of the world, it's quite plain
My dad told me Amy's your name
Said he'd break my neck if I played your game
But he can bust my neck `cause I love you all the same
Amy I know you don't have to show your affection
`Cause the big boys like you and to you I'm an infection
So if you don't want me around
I think I'll run along and drown
You can't want this bum in town Amy
I'm beaten on the streets `cause I loves you
I watch you go to work in the summer
I don't whistle at you down the street
I would if I could but I can't whistle you see
Amy I may not be James Dean
Amy I may not be nineteen
And I may still be in romper boots and jeans
But Amy you're the girl that wrecks my dreams
Elton John - Amy (1972) Honky Chateau (04:01)

Oh c'mon no one have the original video clip of the whole album where this comes from? one of the thing i never forgive Elton is about his amount videos of his nonsense era (80's and forward) and the videos of this great Captain Fantastic when his voice was fantastic .....not todays......

Given that this was released way before the age of MTV, there was never an official video shot of this, or any other song on Captain Fantastic. Even if there had been, this song was never released as a single to necessitate a video to promote it.

Grimsby was on the Caribou album. Bitter Fingers is on the Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy album.

Never understood why this tune did not get more airplay on radio along with Grimsby from this Caribou LP.
