Leeson Street Lady - Bagatelle

Leeson street lady

Walking down Appian way

Leeson street lady

You've been working night and day

Trying to find a client

Someone to pay a

Leeson street lady

You're an easy lay

Leeson street lady

Why don't you walk out your door

Some women stay home and have children

And other women stay poor

You walk the streets and you're going nowhere

But they know where to find you

Because you're always there

You know you're always there

And you've been on this road before

And I know

And you've been through this way before

And I know

But you know what it's like to be down on your luck

Just for a drink going out to get messed up again

Well I read it in the news

They dragged you ashore

There was something hangout 'round your neck

I wasn't really too sure

But nobody's gonna cry for you

And nobody care's you're just a

Leeson street lady

Out selling your wares

This is the first time

That she's been treated like a lady

Because they're letting her go first

Through her own front door

But that's all because the Leeson street lady

She's not a lady anymore

She's not a lady anymore

And you've been on this road before

And I know

And you've been through this way before

And I know

And you know what it's like to be down on your luck

Just for a drink going out to get messed up again

Well there's another Leeson street lady

Walking down Appian way

Well there's another Leeson street lady

She'll be working night and day
