Lyrics

She's bought a hat like princess marina's
 To wear at all her social affairs
 She wears it when she's cleaning the windows
 She wears it when she's scrubbing the stairs
 But you will never see her at ascot
 She can't afford the time or the fare
 But she's bought a hat like princess marina's
 So she don't care
 He's bought a hat like anthony eden's
 Because it makes him feel like a lord
 But he can't afford a rolls or a bentley
 He has to buy a secondhand ford
 He tries to feed his wife and his family
 And buy them clothes and shoes they can wear
 But he's bought a hat like anthony eden's
 So he don t care
 Buddy can you spare me a dime
 My wife is getting hungry
 And the kids are crying
 This poverty is hurting my pride
 Buddy can you spare me, buddy can you spare me a dime
 She's bought a hat like princess marina's
 And her neighbors think it suits her a treat
 But she hasn't any food in the larder
 Nor has anybody else in the street
 But to look at her you'd think she was wealthy
 'cos she smiles just like a real millionaire
 'cos she's bought a hat like princess marina's
 So she don't care, she don't care, she don't care, she don't care
