[00:00.00]
[00:40.80]Well there never was a girl like Lily,
[00:44.52]She was a pretty little heartbreak machine,
[00:48.40]She had a way to part a fool and his money,
[00:52.18]She was a lucky little gambler’s dream
[00:56.06]Yeah and she promised up the world and whatever,
[00:59.82]And she could get a man to do anything,
[01:03.66]And by the morning he’d be cleaned out and crawling on his knees,
[01:07.56]But every night you’ll hear some poor fool sing
[01:11.24]He said: “I may not be a rich man, maybe,
[01:14.96]Oh but I tell you what I’m gonna do,
[01:18.86]I’m gonna take you out tonight in the city,
[01:22.72]I’m gonna spend all my money on you”
[01:26.54]She’d take a seat up at the bar around seven,
[01:30.32]And wait for some poor sucker stumbling by,
[01:34.04]Yeah then she’d pull him in and drag him on under,
[01:37.96]Yeah and she’d drown him in those big, dark eyes
[01:41.74]And with the moonlight breaking through a little crack in the sky,
[01:45.52]Well he was broken and the damage was done,
[01:49.32]He’d give up everything he had for a love that could never be,
[01:53.14]Yeah he’d be screaming at the top of his lungs
[01:57.02]He said: “I may not be a rich man, baby,
[02:00.86]Oh but I tell you what I’m gonna do,
[02:04.58]I’m gonna take you out tonight in the city,
[02:08.42]I’m gonna spend all my money on you”
[02:11.54]
[02:42.78]One day there came into town some kind of big shot man,
[02:46.42]All full of swagger like some Hollywood scene,
[02:50.32]I tried to tell him: “Stay away from Miss Lily,
[02:54.10]That woman’s trouble, if you know what I mean?”
[02:57.94]Well he just laughed and said: “I think I can take care of myself”,
[03:01.72]I said: “Well don’t pretend you haven’t been warned”,
[03:05.52]They found him walking in the morning by the side of the road,
[03:09.36]Yeah he was naked as the day he was born
[03:13.16]He said: “I may not be a rich man, baby,
[03:17.22]Oh but I tell you what I’m gonna do,
[03:20.82]I’m gonna take you out tonight in the city,
[03:24.60]I’m gonna spend all my money on you”
[03:28.44]He said: “I may not be a rich man, baby,
[03:32.22]Oh but I tell you what I’m gonna do,
[03:36.04]I’m gonna take you out tonight in the city,
[03:39.78]I’m gonna spend all my money on you”
[03:43.04]
