[Verse 1]
Well I got on my watch and my big diamond ring
Got on my new suit of brown
I'm sitting on your doorstep crying for your love
I'm the best dressed beggar in town
I’m the best dressed beggar in town
[Verse 2]
Begging for kisses I guess I'll never see
Longing for love warm and sweet
Asking for miracles I know can never be
I’m no better than the beggar in the street
[Verse 1]
But I got on my watch and my big diamond ring
Got on my new suit of brown
I'm sitting on your doorstep crying for your love
I'm the best dressed beggar in town
I’m the best dressed beggar in town
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Begging for your kisses I guess I'll never see
Longing for love warm and sweet
Asking for miracles I know can never be
I’m no better than the beggar in the street
[Verse 1]
But I got on my watch and my big diamond ring
Got on my new suit of brown
I'm sitting on your doorstep crying for your love
I'm the best dressed beggar in town
I’m the best dressed beggar in town
I'm the best dressed beggar in town
I’m the best dressed beggar in town
