I'm just a little beggar girl and Sally is my name |
|
You can call me a skiver and I'll call you the same |
|
You can show me you're sorry if you think it's a shame |
|
That I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
You can show me you're sorry if you think it's a shame |
|
That I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
I'll dance with my peg leg a-wiggling at the knee |
|
I'll play on the accordion my father gave to me |
|
For it's well worth it all to please a gent such as thee |
|
For I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
And it's well worth it all to please a gent such as thee |
|
For I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
I've been down to London, I've been up to Crewe |
|
I travel far and wide to do the work that I do |
|
'Cause I love taking money off a snob like you |
|
For I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
And I love taking money off a snob like you |
|
For I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
Oh the poor they will be rich and the rich they will be poor |
|
That's according to Saul when he wrote down the law |
|
And I'd much rather be rich after than before |
|
For I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
And I'd much rather be rich after than before |
|
For I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
If the words of my song do your conscience alarm |
|
Just remember generosity is like a lucky charm |
|
If you give me your money, it'll do you no harm |
|
For I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
|
If you give me your money, it'll do you no harm |
|
For I'm only a poor little beggar girl |
