Handbags And Gladrags (Decade In The Sun Version)

Handbags And Gladrags - Stereophonics/Jools Holland and His Rhythm & Blues Orchestra
Ever seen a blind man cross the road'
Try'na make it to the other side
Ever seen a young girl growing old'
Try'na make herself a bride
So what becomes of you my love'
When they have finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
Once I was a young man'
And all I thought I had to do was smile
Well you are still a young girl'
And you bought everything in style
So once you think you're in ' you're out'
Cause you don't mean a single thing without
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
Sing a song of sixpence for your sake
And drink 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 Grandad had to sweat to buy you
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 Grandad had to sweat to buy you
