'Cause she was her daddy's pride and joy
'Round and 'round, the years go 'round and 'round
Daddy, won't you buy that pretty dolly for me?
Yeah, and it's really a shame too
She learned about life and it was quite a shock
But now she knocks 'em down with the best on the block, ah, right
And here's the reason why
It's the only toy I ever wanted
Oh, but she's wrong, you know
She came to the city like a good gal should
Tried everything a gal could try
Now she's down and out, everyone's above her
I love the big brass band and the chestnut stand and that sad old man
She takes the notion that nobody loves her
Found a little pad in a bad neighborhood
And many a dream is lost in the nasty city sound
Tried everything a gal could try
Now she's down and out, everyone's above her
Won't you take me for a walk in the park?
She takes the notion that nobody loves her
