linda pinnington - the tale of poor jean lyrics

just listen for a moment
to the tale of poor jean
whom women didn’t love
but don’t forget
in life there is just one moral
whether you’re rich or without a penny
without love one is nothing at all
without love one is nothing at all

he lived day by day
in silk and velvet
he slept in beautiful sheets
but don’t forget
in life one is of little worth
when our heart is to p+wn
without love one is nothing at all
without love one is nothing at all
he ate with the barons
he danced in the parlours
and drank any kind of alcohol
but don’t forget
nothing is worth more than a beautiful girl
who eats out of the same dish
without love one is nothing at all
without love one is nothing at all

to win some money
he was a mean thief
he was greeted quite low
but don’t forget
one day we’ll mess up and get caught
and behind the locks
without love one is nothing at all
without love one is nothing at all

listen well, young ones
take advantage of your twenty years
you won’t have them more than once
but don’t forget
better to have a woman around one’s neck
than a rope
without love one is nothing at all
without love one is nothing at all
and there you have it, my brave ones
the tale of poor jean
who tells you while leaving
“love!”
