pearl's a singer Songtext / Lyric

(J.Leiber/M.Stoller/R.Dino/J.Sembello)

Pearl's a singer
She stands up when she plays the piano in a night club
Pearl's a singer,
She sings songs for the lost and the lonely
Her job is entertaining folks
Singing songs and telling jokes in a night club

Pear'ls a singer
And they say that she once was a winner in a contest
Pearl-'s a singer
And they say that she once got a record
They played it for a week be so on the local radio
It never made it She wanted to be Betty Gravel
But now she sits there at that beer stained table dreaming,
of the thing she never got to do
All those dreams that never came true

Pearl's a singer
She stands up when she plays the piano in a night club
Pearl's a singer
She sings songs for the lost and the lonely
Her job is entertaining folks
Singing songs and telling jokes in a night club

Pearl's a singer
She stands up when she plays the piano in a night club
Pearl's a singer
She sings songs for the lost and the lonely
Her job is entertaining folks
Singing songs and telling jokes in a night club
