On
Mothers Day
._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._.

It´s Mother`s day in Medellín, Colombia and María has to walk for several kilometers for sell ice cream in the form of a popular commodity. She may stay in front of Botanic Garden for eight hours per day and to sell the product at streets while she comes to home where she lives with her sister and children of both. ¿How much money may a women gain doing this "labour" and how much cost all that loss things while this is made? Children at first and mother`s time for them now!

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 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 the 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 five 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

She already knows
she's seen her bad times
she already knows
these are the good times

She'll never sell out
she never will
not for a dollar bill
she works hard

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

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Great set - and ladies like this one deserve all the honour they can get - they do indeed work hard for their money, and they work honestly as well - which is more than those who drive past them in their flash cars can say…. poshrat · 2011-05-08: 13:51
