Songtext
0:16Lady lovely lady
0:22Careless and gay
0:26Once when a beggar called
0:31She gave her child away
0:55The beggar took the baby
1:00Wrapped it in a shawl
1:06'Bring her back ' the lady said
1:10'Next time you call '
1:39Hard by lived a vain man
1:44So vain and so proud
1:49He would walk on stilts
1:55To be seen by the crowd
1:59Up above the chimney pots
2:05Tall as a mast
2:10And all the people ran about
2:15Shouting till he passed
2:43'A splendid match surely '
2:50Neighbours saw it plain
2:54'Although she is so careless
2:58Although he is so vain '
3:06But the lady played bobcherry
3:11Did not see or care
3:17As the vain man went by her
3:23Aloft in the air
3:30This gentle-born couple
3:36Lived and died apart
3:42Water will not mix with oil
3:46Nor vain with careless heart
