SHE WORKS HARD FOR THE MONEY (Summer/Omartian, 1983)
Chorus:
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 stands
And she wonders where she is
And it's strange to her
Some people seem to have everything
9 A.M. on the hour hand
And she's waiting for the bell
And she's looking real pretty
Just waiting for her clientele
Chorus
Twenty-eight 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 tips for pay
But it's worth it all
To hear them say that they care
Chorus
(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...
Chorus
SPANISH TRANSLATION:
ELLA TRABAJA DURO POR EL DINERO (Summer/Omartian, 1983)
Estribillo:
Ella trabaja duro por el dinero
Tan duro por él, cariño
Ella trabaja duro por el dinero
Así que mejor que la trates bien
Ella trabaja duro por el dinero
Tan duro por él, cariño
Ella trabaja duro por el dinero
Así que mejor que la trates bien
Onetta está ahí en la esquina
Y se pregunta dónde está
Y le resulta extraño
Que alguna gente parezca tenerlo todo
Las 9 de la mañana en el reloj de pulsera
Y ella está esperando la campana
Y está realmente guapa
Esperando a su clientela
Estribillo
Veintiocho años han llegado y se han ido
Y ha visto un montón de lágrimas
De los que entran
Ellos parecen necesitarla ahí
Es un sacrificio trabajar día tras día
Por poco dinero, sólo propinas como paga
Pero todo merece la pena
Al oírles decir que se preocupan
Estribillo
Ya sabe que ha visto sus malos tiempos
Ya sabe que éstos son los buenos tiempos
Nunca se venderá
Nunca lo hará
No por un billete de dólar
Ella trabaja duro...
Estribillo
