about

This is a song about Three Beggars.

lyrics

She walks on the train
Drones a monotone voice
She says that she's pregnant
Doesn't have any choice

But there is a problem
She's been pregnant for years
I see her on the street
Sucking back beers

Please, sir
Please, ma'am
Please can you help me out tonight
And get me out of a jam?

She sits on the train
Her body is frail
It's a labor to move
Her voice is pale

She just holds out her hand
Praying for love
It's all she can do
She's staring above

Please, sir
Please, ma'am
Please can you help me out tonight
And get me out of a jam?

I swear I care

She's pushed in our car
Clutching chocolate bar
Her father is fair
Says she's eaten her share

She punches his chest
And demands all the rest
Screaming shrill
Like in a Hitchcock film

Please, sir
Please, ma'am
Please can you help me out tonight
And get me out of a jam?
