She was born on a brightened pier

To a gypsy mother and a bucket of tears

Her good looks coulda sailed a ship

But her will alone coulda sunk it



Funny thing about money for sex

You might get rich

But you die by it



It's gonna be a close call

Gonna be a close call



Tell me now what would you do

Hanging back with the brutes

Hustlin' a pickpocket

That's no way to get rich



It's gonna be a close call

Gonna be a close call

Gonna be a close call

Gonna be a close call



Business woman with good sense

If you live at all, you're gonna die by it

Funny thing about money for sex

You might get rich, but then...



It's gonna be a close call

Gonna be a close call

Gonna be a close call

Gonna be a close call
