Woman of the Ghetto Songtext

von Marlena Shaw

Every night she's on the corner
She's got her business in the street
Her smile may make you think that you can own her
But that smile's reserved for everyone she sees
Woman of the night, I've heard them call her
But she's still a woman when mornin' comes around
She walks through the market as a lady
And she's kinda nice to have around
She's a woman of the night and I love her
Although her love, my silver doesn't buy
It's worth the rain to have a little sunshine
And you laugh much louder when you learn to cry
I've seen them pay for her affection
But when mornin' comes, no one calls her name
She wakes to find no sign of appreciation
Still she isn't wearing any shame
She's a woman of the night and I love her
Although her love, my silver doesn't buy
It's worth the rain to have a little sunshine
And you laugh much louder when you learn to cry
She's a woman of the night and I love her
Although her love, my silver doesn't buy
It's worth the rain to have a little sunshine
And you laugh much louder when you learn to cry
She's a woman of the night and I love her
Although her love, my silver doesn't buy
