Better Late...........
Slap black diamonds on her wrist
rubies on her floor
she has everything she needs
not working anymore.
she don't need your daily dose
of hard won beggars' love,
she ain't crawlin anymore
her push ain't come to shove
Her Daddy really did come through
and left her all he had
even if it was in death
he turned out not so bad.
