Marianne Faithfull - Anger LYRICS

FAMILY

Won't she settle down to business ?
Won't she ever learn to save something ?
For what the feather-brain is sending is not any kind of money
A man can build a little house with.

Show her the way that leads the Good to Thy reward.

Then mind what the Good Book tells us
When it says:
