Laughing in…
Or maybe her…
Verse 1:
Em F
Who would be a poor man, a beggarman, a thief —
G [Lick 1]
if he had a rich man in his hand.
Em F
And who would steal the candy from a laughing baby’s mouth
G [Lick 1]
if he could take it from the money man.

She signs no contract, but she always plays the game.
[Lick 3] [Lick 3]
Dines in Hampstead village, on expense accounted gruel,
[Lick 3] C D B
and the jack-knife barber drops her off at school.
Verse 2:
Em F
Laughing in the playground — gets no kicks from little boys:
G [Lick 1]
would rather make it with a letching grey.
Em F
Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung,
G [Lick 1]
who watches through the railings as they play.
Bridge 2:
[Lick 2] [Lick 2]
Cross-eyed Mary, finds it hard to get along.
[Lick 2] [Lick 2]

[Lick 3] [Lick 3]
She’s a rich man stealer, but her favour’s good and strong:

She’s the Robin Hood of Highgate — helps the poor man get along.
