Little lady
You think your life is tough
Little lady
D'you think it's time enough?
Maybe lady
You nearly make me cry
Maybe lady
Then you'll you take up so high
But what if the time comes to give
But what if you have no place to live
But what if the sun refused to shine
Would you blame your mind?
Yes I know you don't know
Are you thinking?
You know where it went wrong
Are you thinking?
Sit down and sing this song
Keep on thinking
I'm sure the words will come before too soon
Keep on thinking
Sitting alone here in your room
But what if I have the last laugh
But what if you have a heart attack
But what if the moon refused to shine
When you mind
Yes I know you don't know
Little lady
You might think your life is tough
Little lady
I've had just about enough
Little lady
You nearly make me cry
Little lady
Then you'll take me up so high
But what if I just waste my time
But what if it's all just a lie
But what if the world refused to shine
Would you blame your mind?
Yeah I know you don't know
I know you don't know
