A Bird in a Gilded Cage (1900)

This tear-jerker made people cry in its day, 1900. words by Arthur J. Lamb music by Harry Von Tilzer Lyrics 1. The ballroom was filled with fashions throng It shone with a thousand lights And there was a woman who passed along The fairest of all the sights A girl to her lover then softly sighed "There's riches at her command" "But she married for wealth, not for love" he cried Though she lives in a mansion grand Chorus She's only a bird in a gilded cage A beautiful sight to see You may think she's happy and free from care She's not, though she seems to be 'Tis sad when you think of her wasted life For youth cannot mate with age And her beauty was sold, for an old man's gold She's a bird in a gilded cage 2. I stood in a church yard just at eve' When sunset adorned the west And looked at the people who'd come to grieve For loved ones now laid at rest A tall marble monument marked the grave Of one who'd been fashions queen And I thought she is happier here at rest Than to have people say when seen ------------------------------------------ Sung here by Fred Feild.
