Ain’t no story—beat it, Mister;

Good Lord, dear, don’t give your name.

Don’t tell him a damn thing, honey;

Hush now, dear, I know your tale;

Just like me you needed money

And stepped out to grab the kale.

Lost your job, maybe slack season;

Didn’t have the price to eat—

Maybe not, but that’s the reason

Most girls start to hit the street.
