vera johnson - the sweetheart of sordido v lyrics

you may think i am old and dreary
a faded florence nightingale
my face is lined, my breath is beery
still you should listen to my tale
now it’s two thousand and seventy+four
no one will look twice at me
but all the sp+cemen were a+knocking at my door
back in twenty thirty+three

i was big bright barby, the bouncing baby
the sweetheart of sordido five
big bright barby, the bouncing baby
i knew how to make a man feel glad to be alive
they would come to see me feeling low and depressed
when they left their smiles would tell mе i was the best
big bright barby, the bouncing baby
thе sweetheart of sordido five

i still remember dear pruria
he was an old man, i his nurse
after they cured his diarrhoea
he gave me diamonds, he was the first
he told me i had a talent to sell
one worth a mint, so he said
i gave up nursing for the new job paid me well
and i stayed at home in bed
i was big bright barby, the bouncing baby
the sweetheart of sordido five
big bright barby, the bouncing baby
i knew how to make a man feel glad to be alive
they would come to see me feeling low and depressed
when they left their smiles would tell me i was the best
big bright barby, the bouncing baby
the sweetheart of sordido five

i must say i was never thrifty
i made a fortune, spent it all
soon i found i was fat and fifty
my wealthy lovers didn’t call
then a young minister visited me
he got me down on my knees
though i now lead a life as saintly as can be
i still have my memories

i was big bright barby, the bouncing baby
the sweetheart of sordido five
big bright barby, the bouncing baby
i knew how to make a man feel glad to be alive
they would come to see me feeling low and depressed
when they left their smiles would tell me i was the best
big bright barby, the bouncing baby
the sweetheart of sordido five
