VERSE
Once I was a young man
All I thought I had
To do was smile
You are still a young girl
And you bought
Everything in style

BRIDGE
So once you think
You're in, you're out
'Cause you don't mean
A single thing without

CHORUS
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Granddad
Had to sweat to buy you

Sing 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 pie
They 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 buy you

They 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 you
