Painted Ladies Lyrics

It's a grey, grey morning, the rain it do fall I'm feeling hungry and low My bed's so empty, I wish I could call On the painted ladies I know
When you've got no credit, don't hold no sway With the painted ladies I know It's a, thank you for calling, we'll see you someday The painted ladies I know
Leave at home what you value enough And laugh your senses away When you want to love everyone, how can you love? The painted ladies all say
Us film stars and beauties will please you tonight If you go to bed with a book But they can't 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 you're begging them, please, not to go And you're starved for some loving, they can make you feel special The painted ladies I know
If you're seeking fortune, if you're seeking fame And you're 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 It's time to move on or go down with the ship The painted ladies all say
