Ever seen the blind man cross the road
Tryin' to make the other side
Ever seen a young girl growing old
Tryin' to 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 Grandad's had to sweat to buy you
Baby, bye bye

Once I was a young man
And all I thought I had to do was smile, baby
Well are are still a young girl
And you bought everything in style

But once you think you're in, you're out
'Cause you don't mean a single thing without
The handbags and the gladrags
That your Granddad's had to sweat to buy
Baby, bye bye

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 me you missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Grandad's had to sweat so you could buy

Hey, they told me you missed school today
So what I suggest you just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your Granddad's had to sweat so you could buy
Baby, bye bye

Baby, bye bye.....
