作曲：Richard Thompson

I'm just a little beggar girl

and Sally is my name

You can call me a skiver

and I'll call you the same

You can show me you're sorry

if you think it's a shame

That I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

You can show me you're sorry

if you think it's a shame

That I'm only a poor little beggar girl

I'll dance with my peg leg

a-wiggling at the knee

I'll play on the accordion

my father gave to me

For it's well worth it all to please

a gent such as thee

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

And it's well worth it all to please

a gent such as thee

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

I've been down to London

I've been up to Crewe

I travel far and wide to do

the work that I do

'Cause I love taking money off

a snob like you

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

And I love taking money off

a snob like you

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Oh the poor they will be rich and

the rich they will be poor

That's according to Saul

when he wrote down the law

And I'd much rather be rich

after than before

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

And I'd much rather be rich

after than before

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

If the words of my song do

your conscience alarm

Just remember generosity is

like a lucky charm

If you give me your money it'll

do you no harm

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl

Yes I'm only a poor little beggar girl

If you give me your money it'll

do you no harm

For I'm only a poor little beggar girl
