She sold her love to a modern man Cause solid currency's the hardest to lend All that money helps you cover your eyes Don't let the lady finger blow in your head

Give it up for that daughter She's a star tonight Without warning She gave up the ghost inside

Just like a whiskey bottle drained on the floor She got no future just a life to endure This gives some matter to shaking her hide "Too Late to Leave Him" are the songs in her car

Give it up for that daughter She's a star tonight Without warning She gave up the ghost inside

You call it chivalry Never pull a punch for free You ever wonder why they had to move on This phony honor code That puts you on your throne A double standard You invoke when you want

To that daughter She's a star tonight Without warning She gave up the ghost inside

Was it all for show Don't turn into one of them Turn another page Trust me darling I'm carving them up through the dust in your town Crawling over rubble Just to sort it out Now I tend to wonder why

Me thinks:

She sold her love to a modern man Cause solid currency's the hardest to land All that money helps you cover your eyes Don't let the lady finger blow in your head

Give it up for that dollar She's a star tonight Without warning She gave up the ghost inside

Thanks, I changed them.

dude your lyrics aren't even close. the posted lyrics are much closer. No way is it daughter it doesn't make sense with the rest of the song. the only posted lyric that is way off is "this gives some matter to shaking her hide." it should be "this good samaritan shakin her hard." i.e. her pimp shaking her down for money. good samaritan obviously being sarcastic.
