[00:22.71]Ever seen a blind man cross the road
[00:27.07]trying to make the other side
[00:36.96]Ever seen a young girl growing old
[00:41.39]trying to make herself a bride
[00:52.13]So what becomes of you my love
[00:59.30]When they have finally stripped you of
[01:04.67]The handbags and the gladrags
[01:07.48]That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
[01:17.90]Once I was a young man
[01:30.13]and all I thought I had to do was smile
[01:40.49]Well you are still a young girl
[01:44.86]and you bought everything in style
[01:52.85]
[01:56.10]So once you think you're in you're out
[02:03.27]'cause you don't mean a single thing without
[02:08.46]the handbags and the gladrags
[02:11.39]that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
[02:35.03]Sing a song of six-pence for your sake
[02:39.83]And drink a bottle full of rye
[02:48.88]Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
[02:53.56]And bake them all in a pie
[03:04.41]They told me you missed school today
[03:11.59]So what I suggest you just throw them all away
[03:16.77]the handbags and the gladrags
[03:19.64]that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
[03:39.30]They told me you missed school today
[03:45.97]So what I suggest you just throw them all away
[03:51.28]the handbags and the gladrags
[03:54.21]that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
