She's bought a hat like Princess Marina's
|
To wear at all her social affairs
|
She wears it when she's cleaning the windows
|
She wears it when she's scrubbing the stairs
|
But you will never see her at Ascot
|
She can't afford the time or the fare
|
But she's bought a hat like Princess Marina's
|
So she don't care
|
|
He's bought a hat like Anthony Eden's
|
Because it makes him feel like a Lord
|
But he can't afford a Rolls or a Bentley
|
He has to buy a secondhand Ford
|
He tries to feed his wife and his family
|
And buy them clothes and shoes they can wear
|
But he's bought a hat like Anthony Eden's
|
So he don t care
|
|
Buddy can you spare me a dime
|
My wife is getting hungry
|
And the kids are crying
|
This poverty is hurting my pride
|
Buddy can you spare me, buddy can you spare me a dime
|
|
She's bought a hat like Princess Marina's
|
And her neighbors think it suits her a treat
|
But she hasn't any food in the larder
|
Nor has anybody else in the street
|
But to look at her you'd think she was wealthy
|
'Cos she smiles just like a real millionaire
|
'Cos she's bought a hat like Princess Marina's
|
So she don't care, she don't care, she don't care, she don't care
|
