Mrs. Rita
FmOh kind Mrs. Rita I Bbmnever will tell
The Fmway that you keep us poor Bbmgirls here in hell
And I Fmnever will sneak to the CNews of the World
Oh C#kind Mrs. Rita, sinBbmcere Mrs. Rita
A C#friend to a stranger, a D#ma to a Fmgirl Bbm Fm Bbm
With the chalking and cutting and stitching and such
We earn what we earn and it isn’t too much
Enough to keep half a step higher than trash
Oh kind Mrs. Rita, sincere Mrs. Rita
So loose with the purse strings, so free with the cash
ESome guardian angel take pity and swBmeep me awAmay
DmSeems I work every hour God sAmends in a daGmy
To Bbmline the pockets of Rita O’Connor
To F#line the pockets of Rita O’Connor
Oh you can’t call it stealing, more helping yourself
If the odd pair of nylons should fall off the shelf
And fall into somebody’s handbag let’s say
Oh kind Mrs. Rita, sincere Mrs. Rita
It sort of makes up for the pitiful pay
Oh kind Mrs. Rita, sincere Mrs. Rita
God keep and preserve you, we’ll love you always
