Corner Talk - Po' Girl[00:00:00]
She's been a fixture as long as[00:00:17]
I've lived here on the corner most every night[00:00:20]
For the last six years[00:00:23]
When she's not there[00:00:25]
I worry about her and think of all of the women who've disappeared[00:00:27]
We've made friendly acquaintance and sometimes[00:00:33]
We talk she likes the way that I smile and sing as I walk[00:00:36]
I like her fabulous outfits the proud way she moves[00:00:41]
She says[00:00:45]
I used to be a dancer some grace you don't lose[00:00:46]
I've made some choices[00:00:50]
Some were made for me for the way I survive I make no apology[00:00:52]
It's a hard job and thankless but someone's gotta do it[00:00:58]
Old lonely's not leaving and neither's my habit[00:01:02]
Everybody and somebody don't always meet up[00:01:06]
I'm the salvation for those left without[00:01:11]
For those left without those living small lies what[00:01:14]
I provide can't be measured in nickels and dimes[00:01:18]
I ask what about the bad dates don't you ever get scared[00:01:39]
Well I've had my share honey but it's fear I can bear[00:01:44]
I don't let it rule me it's just one of the risks[00:01:47]
When the lawmakers won't admit that they've ever been tricks[00:01:51]
And hypocrisy flows thicker than oil out of Iraq[00:01:55]
All their so called morality just makes me laugh[00:01:59]
I'm stronger than eggshells I'm tougher than luck[00:02:03]
I've never been despised so much or hit so hard[00:02:07]
I couldn't get back up[00:02:10]
I couldn't get back up I couldn't get back up[00:02:14]
She's been a fixture as long as I've[00:02:36]
Lived here on the corner most every night for the last six years[00:02:39]
When she's not there I worry about her[00:02:44]
Think of all of the women who've disappeared[00:02:48]
I think of all of the women who've disappeared[00:02:52]
I think of all of the women who've disappeared[00:02:56]
I think of all of the women who've disappeared[00:03:00]
