Ever seen a blind man cross the
road
Tryin' to make
the other side
Ever seen a
young girl growing old
Tryin' to 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
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, baby
You are still a
young girl
And you bought
everything in style
But once you
think you're in, you're out
'Cause you don't
mean a thing without
The handbags and
the gladrags
That your
grandad had to sweat so you could buy
Baby - bye bye
Sing a song of
six-pence for your sake
And take 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 I suggest you
just throw away
The handbags and
the gladrags
That your
grandad had to sweat so you could buy
Baby - bye bye
