[00:00.87] Well the pressure's down,
[00:02.80] the boss ain't here
[00:03.99] he's gone North for a while
[00:06.36]
[00:08.92] They said that vanity
[00:10.87] Got the best of him
[00:12.48] But he sure left here after sundown.
[00:15.23]
[00:17.43] By the way, that's a cute hat that you're wearing
[00:20.67] And that smile so hard to resist
[00:23.37]
[00:24.93] What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
[00:30.42]
[00:34.18] You know I once knew a woman who looked like you
[00:37.43] She wanted a whole man, not just a half
[00:40.30]
[00:41.49] She used to call me Sweet Daddy, when I was a child
[00:45.86] You kind of remind me of her when you laugh
[00:48.61]
[00:51.31] To deal in this game, you must make the queen disappear
[00:54.50] It's done with a flick of the wrist
[00:57.12]
[00:58.36] What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
[01:03.99]
[01:07.68] You know a woman like you should be at home
[01:11.18] It's where you truly belong
[01:13.93]
[01:16.11] Watching out for someone who loves you true
[01:19.36] Who would never never do you no wrong
[01:22.17]
[01:24.36] Just how much abuse you can take? - Well,
[01:27.75] There's no way to tell by that first lonely kiss
[01:30.62]
[01:32.11] What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
[01:37.49]
[01:41.68] You know you could make a name of yourself
[01:44.99] You can hear those tyres squeal
[01:47.37]
[01:47.99] You can be known as the most beautiful woman
[01:51.24] Whoever crawled across cut glass to make a deal ...
[01:56.49]
[01:58.05] You know the news of you has come down the line
[02:01.50] Even before you came in the door
[02:04.05]
[02:05.56] They say in your father's house there's many mansions
[02:09.86] Each one of them got a fire-proof floor
[02:12.43]
[02:14.81] Snap out of it Baby, people are jealous of you
[02:18.43] They smile in your face, but behind your back they hiss
[02:22.55] What's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
[02:27.86]
[02:31.81] Got to be an important person to come in here honey
[02:35.12] Got to have done some evil deed
[02:38.37] Got to have your own harm when you come in the door
[02:41.37] Got to play your harp until your lips bleed ...
[02:47.36]
[02:48.74] They say patriotism is the last refuge
[02:51.80] To which a scoundrel claime
[02:54.50]
[02:56.68] Steal a little, and they'll throw you in jail
[02:59.99] Steal a lot, and they'll make you a king
[03:02.87]
[03:05.12] There's only one step down from here Baby
[03:08.43] It's the land of the permanent bliss -
[03:12.68] So what's a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?
