Song title: Sandy Denny - Painted Ladies

Edit By: 216.73.216.251

Its a grey, grey morning, the rain it do fall
Im feeling hungry and low
My beds so empty, how I wish I could call
On the painted ladies I know
When youve got no credit, dont hold no sway
With the painted ladies I know
Its a ``thank you for nothing, well see you someday
The painted ladies I know

Leave at home what you value enough
And laugh all your senses away
When you want to love everyone, how can you love
The painted ladies all say
Those film stars and beauties will please you tonight
If you go to bed with a book
But they cant hold a candle to something that trembles
If you need to do more than look

They come from rich fathers and twinkle their eyes
And youre begging them please not to go
When youre starved for some loving, they can make you feel special
The painted ladies I know
If youre seeking fortune, if youre seeking fame
And youre looking yourself in the eye
And God help the children, playing their game
The end of the game is goodbye

They pass through your vision like thoughts in a dream
Your good times are slipping away
Its time to move on or go down with the ship
The painted ladies all say
