[Verse 1]
DOne little Bbgirl, Afair as a pGearl,
FWorked every Cday in a lFaundry;
EbAll that she Cmade for fBbood she pAaid,
So she sElept on a Dpark bench so soGundly;
FAn old proAcuress Fspied her Athere,
AShe came and Cwhispered Ain her eCar:
[Chorus]
DCome with me Ebnow, my Cgirly,
EDon't sleep out Din the Fcold;
GYour face and Ebtresses Dcurly
DWill bring you F#fame and Cgold,
DAutomoEbbiles to Cride in, Ediamonds and Dsilk to Fwear,
GYou'll be a Bbstar bright, Fdown in the Dred light,
CYou'll make your fortune Bbthere.
[Verse 2]
DSame little Bbgirl, Ano more a Gpearl,
FWalks all aClone 'long the Friver,
EbFive years have Cflown, Bbher health is Agone,
She would lEook at the Dwater and shGiver,
FWhene'er she'd Astop to Frest and Asleep,
AShe'd hear a Cvoice call Afrom the Cdeep:
[Chorus]
DCome with me Ebnow, my Cgirly,
EDon't sleep out Din the Fcold;
GYour face and Ebtresses Dcurly
DWill bring you F#fame and Cgold,
DAutomoEbbiles to Cride in, Ediamonds and Dsilk to Fwear,
GYou'll be a Bbstar bright, Fdown in the Dred light,
CYou'll make your fortune Bbthere.
[Verse 3]
DGirls in this Bbway, Afall everyG day,
FAnd have been Cfalling for agFes,
EbWho is to Cblame? You know his Aname,
It's the Eboss that pays Dstarvation Gwages.
FA homeless Agirl can Falways Ahear
ATemptations Ccalling AeverywChere.
[Chorus]
DCome with me Ebnow, my Cgirly,
EDon't sleep out Din the Fcold;
GYour face and Ebtresses Dcurly
DWill bring you F#fame and Cgold,
DAutomoEbbiles to Cride in, Ediamonds and Dsilk to Fwear,
GYou'll be a Bbstar bright, Fdown in the Dred light,
CYou'll make your fortune Bbthere.
