A Little Bit of Soap

Words and Music by Bert Berns

Performed by Nigel Ollson



A little bit of soap

will wash away your lipstick

from my face

A little bit of soap

will never never never ever erase the pain in my heart and my eyes as I go thro

through the lonely years

A little bit of soap

will never wash away my tears....



Just a little bit of soap will take away your powder from my chin

A little bit of soap

will never never never ever begin to take away the hurt that I feel as I go

through the lonely years

A little bit of soap

will never wash away my tears



Now have you heard when love begins to die it leaves someone to cry night and

day

Just like the bird who left the robin's nest you're just like all the rest

You flew away



Just a little bit of soap

will take away your perfume eventually

A little bit of soap

will never take away the memory

of your name in the night

as I go through the lonely years

A little bit of soap

will never wash away my tears...
