[00:22.81]Ever seen a blind man cross the road,
[00:27.22]Try''na make it to the other side.
[00:37.08]Ever seen a young girl growing old,
[00:41.44]Try''na make herself a bride.
[00:48.72]
[00:51.45]So what becomes of you my love,
[00:59.37]when they have finally stripped you of
[01:04.65]The handbags and the gladrags
[01:07.58]that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you.
[01:24.78]
[01:26.77]Once I was a young man,
[01:30.14]and all I thought I had to do was smile.
[01:40.37]Well you are still a young girl,
[01:44.97]and you bought everything in style.
[01:51.73]
[01:55.97]So once you think you''re in , you''re out,
[02:03.21]cause you don''t mean a single thing without
[02:08.42]The handbags and the gladrags
[02:11.40]that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you.
[02:33.03]
[02:34.98]Sing a song of sixpence for your sake
[02:39.84]and drink a bottle full of rye.
[02:48.86]Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake,
[02:53.08]and bake them all in a pie.
[03:00.88]
[03:04.31]They told me you missed school today,
[03:11.45]so what I suggest you just throw them all away.
[03:16.72]The handbags and the gladrags
[03:19.79]that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you.
[03:31.21]
[03:39.24]They told me you missed school today,
[03:45.96]so what I suggest you just throw them all away.
[03:51.37]The handbags and the gladrags
[03:54.44]that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you.
