Lyrics

Workaday Woman (Kuss/Saretsky)

I live downstairs fro a girl I know
She has a heart as good as gold
She?s got a job and she?s got two kids
How she does it I don?t know
Up at six gotta get the children fed
And she gets docked if she comes late
Works hard all day and she comes home dead
Works some more and then she goes to bed

She?s a workaday woman
A born survivor and she?ll stay alive
Justa workaday woman
When the day is done she can?t hide

She nearly lost it, it was just last year
She couldn?t stand the pain no more
No one would lend a sympathetic ear
She?s better now she sees things clear
And she?s got problems but she pays the rent
Somehow she always makes ends meet
Before she gets it the money?s all been spent
Yeah she?s got problems but she don?t repent

Chorus

And I?m sure she thinks about havin? just one man
There?s guys lined up at her back door
With what she?s got she does the best she can
In her memories she?s lovin? just one man

Chorus
