Leeson Street[A] Lady, walking down Appian [A]Way, 
Leeson Street Lady, you' ve[D] been working night and day 
[C#M]  Trying to find a client, [D]someone to[E] pay, 
Leeson Street[A] Lady, you' re an easy[A] lay. 
Leeson Street Lady,[D] why don' t you walk out your[A] door  
Some women stay at home and have children 
[D] Other women stay[A] poor 
[C#M]  You walk the streets and you' re going nowhere 
[D] But they know where to[E] find you, cos you' re always[A] there 
[D] You know you' re always[A] there  
And you' ve been on this road[D] before,[A] and I[E] know 
You' ve been through this way [D]before,[A] and I[E] know 
[D] Well you know what it's like to be be doneon your luck 
[C#M]  For a drink, going out just to get messed up[E] again  
[A]well I read it in the news,[D] they dragged her[A] ashore. 
There was[A] something hanging round her[D] neck 
Wasn' t really too[A] sure. 
But[C#M] nobody' s gonna cry for you - and[D] nobody[E] cares, 
You' re just a Leeson Street[A] LAdy  
[D] Out selling your[A] wares. 
  [A]This is the first time,[D] that she' s been treated like a[A] lady. 
Cos they' re letting her go first,[D] through her own front[A] door. 
Well[C#M] that' s all because, Leeson Street Lady 
[D]  She' s not a lady[A] anymore -[D] she' s not a lady[A] anymore. 
[A]There' s another Leeson Street[D] Lady walking down Appian[A] Way 
[A]  There' s another Leeson Street[D] Lady, she' ll be walking night and[A] day
