Princess In Rags:Gene Pitney.
#9 UK, #2 Canada, #37 in USA in '65.
#1. INTRO: G G7 C
C C7
There's a girl who lives down the track,
F
in a little shack made of timber wood.
G F
And her clothes are all hand-me-downs,
C
from the folks in town who treat her so good.
CHORUS:
C7
Though she hasn't got a dime,
F D
I'm so proud that she's all mine..
G G7 C
cause to me she's a Princess in rags.
#2.
C C7
Now her Dad, he's a worn-out man,
F
prayin' if he can make enough to eat.
G F
And her Mom cleans for everyone,
C
till the day is done, just to make ends meet.
CHORUS:#2.
C7
All her wealth is in her charms,
F D
and the sweetness of her arms..
G G7 C
how I love my poor Princess in rags.
#3.
F G
I know some day I'll find a way
C
to take her out of this old place.
D D7 D D7
I'll work and slave, scrimp and save,
G G7
To change her rags to silk and lace.
#4.
C C7
Though it hurts and my body aches..
F
From the pain it takes just to set things right.
G F
But for now I must be content,
C
with each moment spent in her arms each night.
#5.
C7
She's the only girl for me,
F D
and some day it's gotta be..
G G7 C
Just me and my Princess in rags...(x2)
