[Verse 1]
Hey there little girl
It's a mad mad mad world
And I've gotta say
It's a nasty game to play
My baby she did have green eyes
To scratch my cat
And I've gotta say
It's a nasty game to play

[Chorus 1]
And don't look back
If you do you'll crack
Like a stone being hunted for jewels
And if I die don't let it lie
I know that you will too

I say hey there little girl
I say hey there little girl

[Verse 2]
Hey there little girl
It's a mad mad mad world
And I've gotta say
It's a nasty hand to play
My baby she did have
Those dollars going fast
And I've gotta say
It's a nasty hand to play

[Chorus 2]
And don't look back
If you do you'll crack
Like a stone being hunted for jewels
And if I die don't let it lie
I know that you will too

I say hey there little girl
I say hey there little girl

[Verse 3]
Hey there anyway
You can make it there one day
And you've got the guts
You can fall away
You can fall away
And if I ever did see
Somebody with a dream
Well I have gone to sleep
Just let my body sleep

[Chorus 3]
And don't look back
If you do you'll crack
Like a stone being hunted for jewels
And if I die don't let it lie
I know that you will too

I say hey there little girl
I say hey there little girl
