Handbags and Gladrags Lyrics


Ever seen a blind man cross the road
Trying to make the other side
Ever seen a young girl growing old
Trying to make herself a brideSo what becomes of you my love
When they have finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
That your Granddad had to sweat so you could buy
BabyOnce I was a young man
And all I thought I had to do was smile
You are still a young girl
And you bought everything in styleListen
But 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 Granddad had to sweat so you could buySing a song of six-pence for your sake
And take a bottle full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
And bake them all in a pieThey 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 Granddad had to sweat to buyThey told me you missed school today
So I suggest you just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Granddad had to sweat to buy ya

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
