She works hard for the money
So hard for it honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her
right
She works hard for the money
So hard for it honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her
right
Onetta there in the corner
stands
And wonders where she is
And it`s strange to her
Some people seem to have
everything
Nine a.m. on the hour hand
And she`s waiting for the
bell
And she`s looking real
pretty
She`s waiting for her
clientele
She works hard for the money
So hard for it honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her
right
She works hard for the money
So hard for it honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her
right
Twenty-eight years have
come and gone
And she`s seen a lot of
tears
Of the ones who come in
They really seem to need
her there
It`s a sacrifice working day
to day
For little money just tips
for pay
But it`s worth it all just
to hear them say that
they care
She works hard for the money
So hard for it honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her
right
Already knows she`s seen her
bad times
Already knows these are the
good times
Never sell out,
she never will,
not for a dollar bill
She works hard
She works hard for the money
So hard for it honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her
right
She works hard for the money
So hard for it honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her
right..........
