Lyrics
Now, I work this corner from eleven to five And the hands get cold around midnight And you askin' me if I've got the time Well, I don't know but you're wastin' mine tonight Whoa, you say you're looking for the time Hey, I'm a workin' girl, you just wasted mine And if you ain't got money, take it down the avenue 'Cause I ain't got the time for you, until daylight At the sidewalk ice is cold as steel And I'm not Dorothy I can't click my heels And one of these days I'll move to L.A. Where the nights stay warm and the boys come out to play Whoa, you say you're looking for the time Hey, I'm a workin' girl, you just wasted mine And if you ain't got money, take it down the avenue 'Cause I ain't got the time for you, until daylight Don't the snow light up the midnight sky The snow plows roll and the limos fly Don't cha know it's just another night Oh, once I had a lover who treated me right And he lived so wrong, he's doin' ninety-nine And I wish you had the money, and I had the time I'd just let those limos slide on by Whoa, you say you're looking for the time Hey, I'm a workin' girl, you just wasted mine And if you ain't got money, take it down the avenue 'Cause I ain't got the time for you And it's whoa, you say you're looking for the time Hey, I'm a workin' girl, you just wasted mine And if you ain't got money, take it down the avenue 'Cause I ain't got the time for you, until daylight You come around the daylight, until daylight You come around the daylight, until daylight
