For Heaven will protect a working girl.
CHORUS
“You are going far away, but remember what I say,
When you are in the city’s giddy whirl,
From temptations, crimes, and follies, villains, taxicabs and trolleys,
Oh! Heaven will protect the working girl.”
Her dear old mother’s words proved true, for soon the poor girl met
A man who on her ruin was intent;
He treated her respectful as those villains always do,
And she supposed he was a perfect gent.
