She works hard for the money so hard for you honey
She works hard for the money so you better treat her right
She works hard for the money so hard for you honey
She works hard for the money so you better treat her right
Never there in the corner stairs and she 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 waiting for her clientele
She works hard for the money so hard for you honey
She works hard for the money so you better treat her right
She works hard for the money so hard for you honey
She works hard for the money so you better treat her right
Twenty odd years have come and gone and she's 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 for the 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
Already knows these are the good times
Already knows she's seen her bad times
Never sell out she never will not for a dollar bill
She works hard
