Sweet Charity Lyrics by Otis Ball

I’m Gonna Love You ’Til I Don’t

0

Isn't it a shame the way the blame drips from your name
Your family and your town think it's a pity
The way I saw you sway, it seemed like yesterday
When I would have guessed that you were from the city
Now you're looking for some charity (Sweet charity)
Just a smile to let you know you're right (You're alright)
All you say you want is charity
Maybe just a box to raise your height
I wish i had a dime for every time you spoke your mind
And every time you cried and wouldn't let me
The stars are in their cars, you’re held up in a bar
Thinking up a nеw way you can get me
Now you're looking for somе charity (Sweet charity)
Just a smile to let you know you're right (You're alright)
All you say you want is charity
Maybe just a box to raise your height
Well i caught you arm in arm, the day I left the farm
And I guess I knew there’d be no looking back
You never said you’d stay, I should’ve known you’d be that way
Well I bitched and geared up for a front attack
Now you're looking for some charity (Sweet charity)
Just a smile to let you know you're right (You're alright)
All you say you want is charity
Maybe just a box to raise your height
Take everything you get, don't let your fans forget
You always knew your way around a lie
Miss muffet on your tuffet, you're about to make me rough it
Well, the shit you were, the spider in disguise
Now you're looking for some charity (Sweet charity)
Just a smile to let you know you're alright (You're alright)
All you say you want is charity
Maybe just a box to raise your height
Now you're looking for some charity (Sweet charity)
Just a smile to let you know you're right (You're alright)
All you say you want is charity
Maybe just a box to raise your height
Maybe just a box to raise your height
Maybe just a box to raise your height
