Shes Bought A Hat Like Princess Marina (Stereo)
Shes bought a hat
Like Princess Marinas
To wear at all her social affairs
She wears it
When shes cleaning the windows
She wears it
When shes scrubbing the stairs
But you will never see her at Ascot
She cant afford the time or the fare
But shes bought a hat
Like Princess Marinas
So she dont care
Hes bought a hat
Like Anthony Edens
Because it makes him
Feel like a Lord
But he cant afford a Rolls
Or a Bentley
He has to buy a secondhand Ford
He tries to feed his wife and his family
And buy them clothes
And shoes they can wear
But hes bought a hat
Like Anthony Edens
So he dont care
Buddy can you spare me a dime
My wife is getting hungry
And the kids are crying
This poverty is hurting my pride
Buddy can you spare me
Buddy can you spare me a dime
Buddy can you spare me a dime
Buddy can you spare me
Buddy can you spare me
Buddy can you spare me a dime
Shes bought a hat
Like Princess Marinas
And her neighbors
Think it suits her a treat
But she hasnt any food in the larder
Nor has anybody else in the street
But to look at her
Youd think she was wealthy
Cos she smiles
Just like a real millionaire
Cos shes bought a hat
Like Princess Marinas
So she dont care
So she dont care
She dont care
She dont care
