Lyrics

[00:41.000] Ladies of leisure, with their eyes on the back roads ---
[00:51.000] All looking for strangers, to whom they extend welcomes
[01:01.000] With a smile and a glimpse of pink knees and elbows;
[01:11.000] Of satin and velvet --- good ladies, good fortune.
[01:24.000] Ladies.
[01:47.000] They sing of their heroes: of solitary soldiers
[01:58.000] Invested in good health and manner most charming.
[02:08.000] Whose favors are numbered (none the less well intended)
[02:19.000] By hours in a minute; by those ladies who bless them.
[02:32.000] Ladies.
