Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pearl's a singer
She stands up, when she plays, the piano
In a nightclub
[Verse 2]
Pearl's a singer
She sings songs, for the lost, and the lonely
Her job is entertainin' folks
Singin' songs and tellin' jokes
In a nightclub
[Verse 3]
Pearl's a singer
And they say, that she once, was a winner
In a contest
[Verse 4]
Pearl's a singer
And they say, that she once, cut a record
They played it for a week or so
On the local radio, it never made it
[Verse 5]
She wanted to be Betty Grable
But now she sits there at that beer stained table
Dreaming of the things she never got to do
All those dreams that never came true
[Verse 6]
Pearl's a singer
She stands up, when she plays, the piano
In a nightclub
[Verse 7]
Pearl's a singer
She sings songs, for the lost, and the lonely
Her job is entertainin' folks
Singin' songs and tellin' jokes
In a nightclub
[Verse 8]
Pearl's a singer
She stands up, when she plays, the piano
In a nightclub
[Verse 9]
Pearl's a singer
She sings songs, for the lost, and the lonely
Her job is entertainin' folks
Singin' songs and tellin' jokes
In a nightclub
