Songtexte Poor Little Rich Girl - Carmen McRae , Ray Bryant

Poor little rich girl, you're a bewitched girl
You better beware, you better beware
Laughing at danger, virtue, a stranger
Better take care, you better take care

The life you lead sets all your nerves a jangle
Your love affairs are in a hopeless tangle
Though you're a child, dear, your life's a wild typhoon

In life of leisure, the graceful pleasures
Steadily grows, steadily grows
Cocktails and laughter, but what comes after
Nobody knows, nobody knows

You're weaving love into a mad jazz pattern
Ruled by Pantaloon
Poor little rich girl
Don't drop a stitch too soon

The life you lead sets all your nerves a jangle
Your love affairs are in a hopeless tangle
Though you're a child, dear, your life's a wild typhoon

In life of leisure, the graceful pleasures
Steadily grows, steadily grows
Cocktails and laughter, but what come after
Nobody knows, nobody knows

You're weaving love into a mad jazz pattern
Ruled by Pantaloon
Poor little rich girl
Don't drop a stitch too soon, too soon

Poor little rich, rich girl
