The Little Beggar Girl (John Peel Session, 1/1/1973)

Live At The BBC

Richard Thompson Linda Thompson

歌词

I'm just a little beggar girl and Sally is my name

You can call me a skiver and I'll call you the same

You can show me you're sorry if you think it's a shame

That I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

You can show me you're sorry if you think it's a shame

That I'm only a poor little beggar girl

I'll dance with my peg leg a-wiggling at the knee

I'll play on the accordion my father gave to me

For it's well worth it all to please a gent such as thee

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

And it's well worth it all to please a gent such as thee

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

I've been down to London, I've been up to Crewe

I travel far and wide to do the work that I do

'Cause I love taking money off a snob like you

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

And I love taking money off a snob like you

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Oh the poor they will be rich and the rich they will be poor

That's according to Saul when he wrote down the law

And I'd much rather be rich after than before

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

And I'd much rather be rich after than before

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

If the words of my song do your conscience alarm

Just remember generosity is like a lucky charm

If you give me your money, it'll do you no harm

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

If you give me your money, it'll do you no harm

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
