You ever see a blind man cross the road
Trying to make the other side?
Did you ever see a young girl going home
Trying to make herself a bride?
So what becomes of you, my love
When they've finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
That your grandad had to sweat
So you could buy, baby
Bye-bye
Once I was a young man and I thought
All I had to do was smile
You are still a young girl and you bought
Everything in style, oh
So once you think you're in, you're out
'Cause you don't mean a, a thing without
The handbags and the gladrags
That your grandad had to sweat
So you could buy, baby
Bye-bye, bye-bye
Sing a song of sixpence for your sake
And take a pocketful of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
You bake 'em all in a pie, oh no
It's only you in this school today
So I suggest you just throw 'em away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your grandad had to sweat
So you could buy, baby
Bye-bye, oh
Bye-bye, bye-bye
Bye-bye, bye, baby, baby, baby
Bye-bye, so long, so long
Ain't gonna see you no more
Bye-bye, goodbye, baby, baby, baby, baby
Bye-bye, bye-bye
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby
Bye-bye, yeah, yeah
