She gave her little child a name
|
A ward of welfare she became
|
And then one day she met a man
|
Digging through the trash for cans
|
|
Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope
|
|
It was his aluminum
|
That attracted her to him
|
And quite a day there did unfold
|
Turning garbage into gold
|
|
Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope
|
|
She took that money in a trunk
|
And bought a bunch of worthless junk
|
And now they're back where they began
|
Digging through the trash for cans
|
|
Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope
|
