Lyrics:

Pearl's a singer
She stands up when she plays the piano in a night club
Pearl's a singer
She sings songs for the lost and the lonely
Her job is entertaining folks
Singing songs and telling jokes in a night club

Pearl's a singer
And they say that she once was a winner in a contest
Pearl's a singer
And they say that she once cut a record
They played it for a week or so on the local radio
It never made it

She wanted to be Betty Grable
But now she sits there at that beer-stained table
Dreaming of the things she never got to do
All those dreams that never came true

Pearl's a singer
She stands up when she plays the piano in a night club
Pearl's a singer
She sings songs for the lost and the lonely
Her job is entertaining folks
Singing songs and telling jokes in a night club

Pearl's a singer
She stands up when she plays the piano in a night club
Pearl's a singer
She sings songs for the lost and the lonely
Her job's entertaining folks
Singing songs, telling jokes in a night club
