Standard (EADGBE)

 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 Mari____na's

 So she don't care Bass walk-up G A B C

 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 E_____den's

 So he don't care Drums up the tempo into...

 ( stomp, with swazzle)

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

Guitar Solo and stomp on A7 D7 G C x2 (hold C last time)

[Buddy can you spare me, buddy can you spare me a dime...etc]

Drum break and key change into a looney tune rendition

 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 Ma__rina's

 So she don't care,

she don't care,

(Drum break)

she don't care,

she don't care___________
