Girl, you been giving yourself away.
Just to have a place to stay.
You have been used and abused like a garden tool.

But when you were here you had self-pride.
And now I here hurting deep inside to see you without that self-pride.

Stop and think,  and renew yourself.
If being lonely what you must do?
Then make that decision to just leave men alone.

If they can't place you as their Queen upon a throne.

No need to be the subject of a sad song.
When I very aware you have this strength within to be strong?
And rely back upon your self-pride.

A fool, will use and use again?
Hold you down until you're longer needed by them.
But when you were here, you were well taken care of and had self-pride
