Verse 1:
D     Bb  A     G
One little girl, fair as a pearl,
F      C     F
Worked every day in a laundry;
Eb      C     Bb    A
All that she made for food she paid,
    E     D        G
So she slept on a park bench so soundly;
F     A   F     A
An old procuress spied her there,
A      C     A    C
She came and whispered in her ear:

Chorus:
D      Eb   C
Come with me now, my girly,
E        D   F
Don't sleep out in the cold;
G       Eb   D
Your face and tresses curly
D       F#    C
Will bring you fame and gold,
D   Eb    C    E      D    F
Automobiles to ride in, diamonds and silk to wear,
G      Bb      F      D
You'll be a star bright, down in the red light,
C            Bb
You'll make your fortune there.

Verse 2:
D      Bb  A     G
Same little girl, no more a pearl,
F     C       F
Walks all alone 'long the river,
Eb       C   Bb      A
Five years have flown, her health is gone,
      E     D      G
She would look at the water and shiver,
F       A    F    A
Whene'er she'd stop to rest and sleep,
A      C     A    C
She'd hear a voice call from the deep:

Chorus:
D      Eb   C
Come with me now, my girly,
E        D   F
Don't sleep out in the cold;
G       Eb   D
Your face and tresses curly
D       F#    C
Will bring you fame and gold,
D   Eb    C    E      D    F
Automobiles to ride in, diamonds and silk to wear,
G      Bb      F      D
You'll be a star bright, down in the red light,
C            Bb
You'll make your fortune there.

Verse 3:
D       Bb  A     G
Girls in this way, fall every day,
F       C       F
And have been falling for ages,
Eb    C          A
Who is to blame? You know his name,
     E       D     G
It's the boss that pays starvation wages.
F     A    F   A
A homeless girl can always hear
A      C    A   C
Temptations calling everywhere.

Chorus:
D      Eb   C
Come with me now, my girly,
E        D   F
Don't sleep out in the cold;
G       Eb   D
Your face and tresses curly
D       F#    C
Will bring you fame and gold,
D   Eb    C    E      D    F
Automobiles to ride in, diamonds and silk to wear,
G      Bb      F      D
You'll be a star bright, down in the red light,
C            Bb
