-peak billboard position # 37 in 1965

-words and music by helen miller and roger atkins

There's a girl who lives down the track

In a little shack made of timber wood

And her clothes are all hand-me-downs

From the folks in town who treat her so good

Though she hasn't got a dime

I'm so proud that she's all mine

'cause to me she's a princess in rags

Now her dad he's a worn-out man

Prayin' if he can make enough to eat

And her mom cleans for everyone

Till the day is done just to make ends meet

All her wealth is in her charms

And the sweetness of her arms

How i love my poor princess in rags

I know some day i'll find a way

To take her out of this old place

I'll work and slave scrimp and save

To change her rags to silk and lace

Though it hurts and my body aches

From the pain it takes just to set things right

But for now i must be content

With each moment spent in her arms each night

She's the only girl for me

And some day it's gotta be

Just me and my princess in rags

She's the only girl for me

And some day it's gotta be

Just me and my princess in rags
