Lyrics
She wakes up early every morning
Just to do her hair, now
Because she cares, y'all
Her day, oh, wouldn't be right
Without her makeup
She's never outta makeup
She's just like you and me
But she's homeless, she's homeless
As she stands there, singing for money
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
In my sleep I see her begging
Preaching, "Please"
Although her body is not mine
I ask, "God, why? God, why?"
She's just like you and me
But she's homeless, she's homeless
As she stands there, singing for money
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
She's just like you and me
As she stands there, singing for money
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
In my sleep I see her begging
Preaching, "Please"
Although the fault is not mine
I ask now, "Why? God, why?"
She's just like you and me
But she's homeless, she's homeless
As she stands there, singing for money
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
La-da-dee, la-dee-dow, la-da-dee, la-dee-dow
You know
You know, 'cause you know, cause you know
You know
