Princess In Rags - Gene Pitney[00:00:00]
There's a girl who lives down the track[00:00:09]
In a little shack made of timber wood[00:00:12]
And her clothes are all hand me downs[00:00:19]
From the folks in town who treat her so good[00:00:23]
Though she hasn't got a dime[00:00:29]
I'm so proud that she's all mine[00:00:32]
'Cause to me she's a princess in rags[00:00:37]
Now her dad he's a worn-out man[00:00:45]
Prayin' if he can make enough to eat[00:00:49]
And her mom cleans for everyone[00:00:55]
Till the day is done just to make ends meet[00:00:59]
All her wealth is in her charms[00:01:05]
And the sweetness of her arms[00:01:09]
How I love my poor princess in rags[00:01:13]
I know some day I'll find a way[00:01:21]
To take her out of this old place[00:01:24]
I'll work and slave scrimp and save[00:01:30]
To change her rags to silk and lace[00:01:34]
Though it hurts and my body aches[00:01:38]
From the pain it takes just to set things right[00:01:42]
But for now I must be content[00:01:48]
With each moment spent in her arms each night[00:01:52]
She's the only girl for me[00:01:58]
And some day it's gotta be[00:02:02]
Just me and my princess in rags[00:02:07]
She's the only girl for me[00:02:14]
And some day it's gotta be[00:02:18]
Just me and my princess in rags[00:02:23]
