[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
[Verse 1]
Onetta there in the corner stand
And she's wondering where she is
And it's strange to her
Some people seem to have everything
Nine AM on the hour hand
And she's waiting for the bell
And she's looking real pretty
Just waiting for her clientele, oh
[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, oh
[Verse 2]
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
Well, it's a sacrifice working day to day
For little money, she steals for pay
But it's worth it all
Just to hear them say that they care
[Chorus]
She works hard for the money
So hard for it, honey
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right
[Bridge]
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
So hard
She works hard
[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
[Outro]
She works hard for the money
So you better treat her right
