Salvation Army Girl

She’ll give you soup and bread for free
In the golden age of misery
Whether you’re down in the record heat
Or treading barefoot the frosty street
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
(Baked beans from the homeless queen!)
All of the junkies here agree
She looks a lot like Jackie Kennedy
You oughta see it, man, the way she glides
Whistlin' rock-n-roll suicide
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
(Show the world the salvation twirl!)
She’s feeding the pigeons in Washington Square
She always smiles to see me there
I wanna tell her I love her, but it seems so unfair
But seems to unfair to my Salvation Army girl
Now the tree’s up in Rockefeller Center
And she’s standing there in the windy weather
Casting bread upon the water
Like the crumbling of the established order
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
Salvation Army girl
