Karaoké Handbags and Gladrags Stereophonics

Ever seen a blind man cross the road trying to make the other side?

Ever seen a young girl growing old trying to make herself a bride?

So what becomes of you my love when they have finally stripped you of

The handbags and the gladrags that your poor old grandad had to sweat to buy you

Yeah yeah yeah

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've bought everything in style

So once you think you're in, you're 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

Sing a song of six-pence for your sake and drink a bottle full of rye

Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake and bake 'em all in a pie

They told me you 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 oh ooh oh oh

They told me you 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
