She's bought a hat like Princess Marina's

To wear at all her social affairs

She wears it when she's cleaning the windows

She wears it when she's scrubbing the stairs

But you will never see her at Ascot

She can't afford the time or the fare

But she's bought a hat like Princess Mari____na's

So she don't care Bass walk-up G A B C

He's bought a hat like Anthony Eden's

Because it makes him feel like a Lord

But he can't afford a Rolls or a Bentley

He has to buy a secondhand Ford

He tries to feed his wife and his family

And buy them clothes and shoes they can wear

But he's bought a hat like Anthony E_____den's

So he don't care Drums up the tempo into...

( stomp, with swazzle)

Buddy can you spare me a dime

My wife is getting hungry

And the kids are crying

This poverty is hurting my pride

Buddy can you spare me, buddy can you spare me a dime

Guitar Solo and stomp on A7 D7 G C x2 (hold C last time)

[Buddy can you spare me, buddy can you spare me a dime...etc]

Drum break and key change into a looney tune rendition

She's bought a hat like Princess Marina's

And her neighbors think it suits her a treat

But she hasn't any food in the larder

Nor has anybody else in the street

But to look at her you'd think she was wealthy

'Cos she smiles just like a real millionaire

'Cos she's bought a hat like Princess Ma__rina's

So she don't care,

she don't care,

(Drum break)

she don't care,

she don't care___________
