Lyrics

Well, I work this corner from eleven to five The hands get cold around midnight You're askin' me if I've got the time... well I don't know But you're wastin' mine tonight Whoa... you say you're looking for the time Well, I'm a workin' girl... you just wasted mine If you ain't got money... take it down the avenue 'Cuz I ain't got time for you... until daylight This sidewalk ice is cold as steel... I'm not Dorothy... I can't click my heels One of these days I'll move to L.A. Where the nights stay warm and the boys come out to play Whoa... you say you're looking for the time Well, I'm a workin' girl... you just wasted mine If you ain't got money... take it down the avenue 'Cuz I ain't got time for you... until daylight Don't the snow light up the midnight sky The snow plows roll and the limos fly Don't cha know it's just another night Oh, once I had a lover who treated me right He lived so wrong he's doin' ninety-nine Oh, I wish you had the money and I had the time 'Cuz I'd just let those limos slide on by Whoa... you say you're looking for the time Well, I'm a workin' girl... you just wasted mine If you ain't got money... take it down the avenue 'Cuz I ain't got time for you... until daylight Whoa... you say you're looking for the time Well, I'm a workin' girl... you just wasted mine If you ain't got money... take it down the avenue 'Cuz I ain't got time for you... until daylight
