Mrs. Rita
Fm Bbm
Oh kind Mrs. Rita I never will tell
Fm Bbm
The way that you keep us poor girls here in hell
Fm C
And I never will sneak to the News of the World
C# Bbm
Oh kind Mrs. Rita, sincere Mrs. Rita
C# D# Fm Bbm Fm Bbm
A friend to a stranger, a ma to a girl
With the chalking and cutting and stitching and such
We earn what we earn and it isn�t too much
Enough to keep half a step higher than trash
Oh kind Mrs. Rita, sincere Mrs. Rita
So loose with the purse strings, so free with the cash
E Bm Am
Some guardian angel take pity and sweep me away
Dm Am Gm
Seems I work every hour God sends in a day
Bbm
To line the pockets of Rita O�Connor
F#
To line the pockets of Rita O�Connor
Oh you can�t call it stealing, more helping yourself
If the odd pair of nylons should fall off the shelf
And fall into somebody�s handbag let�s say
Oh kind Mrs. Rita, sincere Mrs. Rita
It sort of makes up for the pitiful pay
Oh kind Mrs. Rita, sincere Mrs. Rita
God keep and preserve you, we�ll love you always
