The Little Beggar Girl (John Peel Session, 111973)

Im just a little beggar girl and Sally is my name
You can call me a skiver and Ill call you the same
You can show me youre sorry if you think its a shame
That Im only a poor little beggar girl
Yes Im only a poor little beggar girl
You can show me youre sorry if you think its a shame
That Im only a poor little beggar girl
Ill dance with my peg leg a- wiggling at the knee
Ill play on the accordion my father gave to me
For its well worth it all to please a gent such as thee
For Im only a poor little beggar girl
Yes Im only a poor little beggar girl
And its well worth it all to please a gent such as thee
For Im only a poor little beggar girl
Ive been down to London, Ive 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 Im only a poor little beggar girl
Yes Im only a poor little beggar girl
And I love taking money off a snob like you
For Im only a poor little beggar girl
Oh the poor they will be rich and the rich they will be poor
Thats according to Saul when he wrote down the law
And Id much rather be rich after than before
For Im only a poor little beggar girl
Yes Im only a poor little beggar girl
And Id much rather be rich after than before
For Im 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, itll do you no harm
For Im only a poor little beggar girl
Yes Im only a poor little beggar girl
If you give me your money, itll do you no harm
For Im only a poor little beggar girl
