[Verse:] Lonesome little shopgirl Sitting home alone No boy about To take her out She is very pretty But nobody knows Lonesome little Rose Hasn't any clothes [Refrain:] Beautiful faces need beautiful clothes Satins and laces, nice ribbons and bows An ankle may be a joy But any boy who gazes Won't warble its praises Unless it's covered by attractive hose Many a shopgirl whom nobody knows Would be the top girl in musical shows If she were dressed in the best From her head right down to her toes For beautiful faces need beautiful clothes
