She don't dream of spring in Paris, jetting off to Singapore
She just needs a quarter tank to get her to the grocery store
She don't buy filet mignon, she just wants some extra pork in her beans

It may not sound like much
But that's the stuff that makes up a poor girls dream

She's tired of haulin baskets down to the laundry mat
Dealin with the weirdos and the stress of all of that
She'd rather put her dollar somewhere other than a washin machine

Well, it may not sound like much
But that's the stuff that makes up a poor girls dream

If you've got a million you want two
If you ain't got nothing any little thing will do

She works on the clock, punching in and out for years
She'd like to take that double shift and shift it down a gear
Go home and light a candle, paint her toes a different color and just breathe

It may not sound like much
But that's the stuff that makes up a poor girls dream

If you've got a million you want two
If you ain't got nothing any little thing will do

A little piece of mind
Just a taste of what could be
Well, it may not sound like much
But that's the stuff that makes up poor girls dream

Yeah, it may not sound like much
But that's the stuff that makes up poor girls dream
A poor girls dream
