I owe, I owe, so it's off to work I go
I owe, I owe, so it's off to work I go

Two weeks overtime, for a few extra dimes
Three pretty mouths to feed
And they're counting on me

'Cause their daddy's sleeping off another late night drinking
And before they see him
I get 'em dressed and get 'em out the door
I wear a lot of hats and I fill a lot of shoes

I'm a working woman, and I ain't scared
To get my hands dirty, I make a way when a way ain't there
I'm a working woman, all day long
I clock at my 9 to 5, I clock in when I get home
I do it all, I do it all, I do it all
All by my damn self

I don't want a thing for free
So don't you pity me
I may not have a lot, but I've earned what I got
'Cause my mama raised me, and I'm just like that lady
Life ain't always gravy
Sometimes you gotta go hoe that row
And I sleep good at night in the bed I made

I'm a working woman, and I ain't scared
To get my hands dirty, I make a way when a way ain't there
I'm a working woman, all day long
I clock at my 9 to 5, I clock in when I get home
I do it all, I do it all, I do it all
All by my damn self

I'm a working woman, and I ain't scared
To get my hands dirty, I make a way when a way ain't there
I'm a working woman, all day long
I clock at my 9 to 5, I clock in when I get home
I do it all, I do it all, I do it all
All by my damn self
