Ever seen a blind man cross the road
Try'na make it to the other side
Ever seen a young girl growing old
Try'na make herself a bride

So what becomes of you my love
When they have finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

Once I was a young man
And all I thought I had to do was smile
Well, you are still a young girl
And you bought everything in style

So once you think you're in , you're out
'cause you don't mean a single thing without
The handbags and the gladrags that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you

Sing a song of sixpence for your sake
And drink a bottle full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
And bake them all in a pie

They told me you missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy, oh woah

They told me you missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags that your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
