Twenty eight years have come and gone
And she's seen a lot of tears of 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

She already knows these are the good times
She'll never sell out she never will not for a dollar bill
