She Works Hard for the Money

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 stand

And she 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 her bell

And she's looking real pretty

Just wait 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' 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

She'll never sell out

She never will

Not for a dollar bill

She works hard

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

She works hard, hard, hard for the money

So hard, hard, hard for it honey

Hard for the money

So you better treat her right, her right
