[00:00.00]The Little Beggar Girl - Richard & Linda Thompson
[00:04.57]I'm just a little beggar girl and Sally is my name
[00:08.76]You can call me a skiver and I'll call you the same
[00:13.66]You can show me you're sorry if you think it's a shame
[00:18.03]That I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[00:22.05]Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[00:26.04]You can show me you're sorry if you think it's a shame
[00:30.35]That I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[00:38.40]I'll dance with my peg leg a-wiggling at the knee
[00:42.51]I'll play on the accordion my father gave to me
[00:47.55]For it's well worth it all to please a gent such as thee
[00:51.98]For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[00:55.74]Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[00:59.87]And it's well worth it all to please a gent such as thee
[01:04.11]For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[01:12.16]I've been down to London I've been up to Crewe
[01:16.10]I travel far and wide to do the work that I do
[01:21.23]'Cause I love taking money off a snob like you
[01:25.52]For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[01:29.27]Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[01:33.36]And I love taking money off a snob like you
[01:37.73]For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[02:10.03]Oh the poor they will be rich and the rich they will be poor
[02:14.11]That's according to Saul when he wrote down the law
[02:19.26]And I'd much rather be rich after than before
[02:23.39]For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[02:27.47]Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[02:31.47]And I'd much rather be rich after than before
[02:35.65]For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[02:43.85]If the words of my song do your conscience alarm
[02:47.92]Just remember generosity is like a lucky charm
[02:52.88]If you give me your money it'll do you no harm
[02:57.07]For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[03:01.06]Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl
[03:05.15]If you give me your money it'll do you no harm
[03:10.41]For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
