Handbags And Gladrags |
Ever seen a blind man cross the road, |
Trying to make the other side. |
Ever seen a young girl growing old, |
Trying to make herself a bride. |
And what becomes of you my love, |
When they have finally stripped you of, |
The handbags and the gladrags, |
That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy. |
Once I was a young man, |
And all I thought I had to do was smile. |
So listen all you young girls, |
Who have bought everything that’s in style. |
'Cos once you think you’re in you’re out, |
For you don’t mean a thing without, |
The handbags and the gladrags, |
That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy. |
Sing a song of six-pence for your sake, |
And take a bottle full of rye. |
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake, |
And bake 'em all in a pie. |
They told me you missed school today, |
So I suggest you just throw away, |
The handbags and the gladrags, |
That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy. |
And what becomes of you my love, |
When they have finally stripped you of, |
The handbags and the gladrags, |
That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy. |
