That your poor old grandad had to sweat to buy you

(same as first verse)
Once I was a young man
And all i thought i had to do was smile
Well you are still a young girl
And you bought everything in style

So once you think your in your out
'Cos you don't mean a single thing without
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old grandad had to sweat to buy you

 D5 (xx023x@1) A (x02220@1) D5 (xx023x@1)A (x02220@1)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 missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad had to sweat to buy you
