And many a dream is lost in the nasty city sound...
Now she's down and out, everyone's above her
Tried everything a gal could try
She takes the notion that nobody loves her
And here's the reason why:
She came to the city like a good gal should
Found a little pad in a bad neighborhood
She learned about life and it was quite a shock
But now she knocks 'em down with the best on the block
Ah, right!
Yeah, and it's really a shame too,
'Cause she was her daddy's pride and joy
Daddy, won't you buy that pretty dolly for me?
It's the only toy I ever wanted
Won't you take me for a walk in the park?
I love the big brass band
And the chestnut stand
And that sad old man
'Round and 'round, the years go 'round and 'round
And many a dream is lost in the nasty city sound...
Now she's down and out, everyone's above her
Tried everything a gal could try
She takes the notion that nobody loves her
Oh, but she's wrong, you know,
Because I love her
'Round and 'round, the years go 'round and 'round And many a dream is lost in the nasty city sound... Now she's down and out, everyone's above her Tried everything a gal could try She takes the notion that nobody loves her And here's the reason why: She came to the city like a good gal should Found a little pad in a bad neighborhood She learned about life and it was quite a shock But now she knocks 'em down with the best on the block Ah, right! Yeah, and it's really a shame too, 'Cause she was her daddy's pride and joy Daddy, won't you buy that pretty dolly for me? It's the only toy I ever wanted Won't you take me for a walk in the park? I love the big brass band And the chestnut stand And that sad old man 'Round and 'round, the years go 'round and 'round And many a dream is lost in the nasty city sound... Now she's down and out, everyone's above her Tried everything a gal could try She takes the notion that nobody loves her Oh, but she's wrong, you know, Because I love her Explain Request ×
