I knew a girl, she said she loved me so.
Said, "I don't care for you at all.
I can do better than you and that's just what I plan to do."

I won't marry you, there's too much to do.

Take my hand and you'll fall.

I know when I've made a girl cry,
I know when I've made a girl cry,
I know when I've made a girl cry,
That I've done my job.

I'm not grateful for anything that I have.
Not the food on my plate, not the clothes on my back.
Not the world laid at my feet,
Not the daily sunshine that I meet.
Not the way my parents loved me so.
Not the upper-middle class life that I know.

I won't marry you, there's too much to do.

Take my hand and you'll fall.

I know when I've made a girl cry,
I know when I've made a girl cry,
I know when I've made a girl cry,
That I've done my job.

Da, da da da da da da

I've done my job.
I've done my job time and time again
