Lyrics

I see young girls with old faces
I see good girls in bad places
I see plain girls in finery
And every one be the death of me
Needle and thread, needle and thread
Hand me down my needle and thread
I said, hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
I thread up my needle and then
I'm gonna sew my soul back together again
Now pretty Caitlin she went too far
Shaking all she had at the topless bar
Right in the face of Ben and Bob
Put a little too much into the job
Needle and thread, needle and thread
Hand me down my needle and thread
I said, hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
I thread up my needle and then
I'm gonna sew my soul back together again
Now sweet Myfanwe she took a shine
But she dumped me for Dai worked down the mine
Said I was a temp, Dai was a keeper
He knew how to dig that little bit deeper
Needle and thread, needle and thread
Hand me down my needle and thread
I said, hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
I thread up my needle and then
I'm gonna sew my soul back together again
Now Bonnie Jean she meant everything
But she threw back my hard-earned ring
Said she had other men who dig her
She was holding out for something bigger
Needle and thread, needle and thread
Hand me down my needle and thread
I said, hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
I thread up my needle and then
I'm gonna sew my soul back together again
Oh, I thread up my needle and then
I'm gonna sew my soul back together again
