Shopping Bag Lady - The Guess Who

作词：Burton Cummings

作曲：Burton Cummings Domenic Troiano

City lights

And the pretty sights

Beckoned you to roam

Leavin' now

And you're knowin' how

You're on your own

Family

And reality

Seem so far away

Feelin' fine

And the happy times

Hve left you to stay

Oh shopping bag lady asleep on the snow

If you had your fortune

Yu'd trade it for a kind hello

Oh shopping bag lady the winter winds blow

Society

Has forgotten you

There's nowhere left for you to go

Through the tears

All your better years

Passin' by so fast

Loneliness

Is a part of you

And oh how it lasts

No one there

There to really care

The city seems so cold

Yesterday

You were just a child

Today you're so old

Oh shopping bag lady asleep on the snow

If you had your fortune

You'd trade it for a kind hello

Oh shopping bag lady the winter winds blow

Society has forgotten you

There's nowhere left for you to go

I would love to

Hold you

Nights when

You're

Alone and the

Cold and dark is killin' you ever so slowly

I would

Love to

Love you

Nights when

You're

Alone

You're alone

I know the days used to be something different for you

I know it's cold and

Lonely and it's misery

I wanna help you I wanna help you

I wanna help you when you're down

I wanna look around and find a helping hand for you

Oh no it's never too late oh no it's never

Too late to try and help you out

I know you're cold and it's misery

I can tell the days used to be something different for you
