Lyrics: Husker Du. Charity, Chastity, Prudence, and Hope.

She gave her little child a name
A ward of welfare she became
And then one day she met a man
Digging through the trash for cans

Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope

It was his aluminum
That attracted her to him
And quite a day there did unfold
Turning garbage into gold

Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope

Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope

She took that money in a trunk
And bought a bunch of worthless junk
And now they're back where they began
Digging through the trash for cans

Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope
Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope
Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope
Charity, chastity, prudence, and hope
