Yo listen

I met this girl on Baltic Ave.

And you can tell how she steps on boardwalk,

She was park place

I asked what she was doing on this side of
town

She said she had some taxes to pay

I figure I'd take a chance and advance to go

And find out more about

Cause there more to know than the way she ways

And the way that she wears her clothes,

Or the way she plays this game (so cold)

She said she came up rough 

And one income was not enough

There'd be nights she'd go to sleep hungry

Cause her mom was always short on food and
money

See people used to joke a lot

Tease her bout her clothes not being in style

Dressed in dingy skirts and dirty sneakers

From the finest second hand down Oriental Ave.



[Chorus]



But now look at her

She got this game on lock

Anything she ever wanted now she got it

And I've gotta say

And I'm proud to see

That someone like her is in central

Womanopoly



Once she graduated junior high she started
working overtime

Scrubbing floors or working on assembly lines

Just so she could help her mother out and

After college they moved into Marvin Gardens

And she got a job working at the city water
department

To raise enough cash

In move into community chest condos on
Pennsylvania Ave

She fell in love with this dude named ray

Who was a small time hustler from St. Charles
place



And he was known for always bein in and out of
trouble

But the problem was that he was never on her
level

She argued with her mom about ray's work

Til he was sent upstate on the same day that she
gave birth

But see the baby never made it, it drove her
nearly crazy

And she couldn't take it



[Chorus]



(Listen) see where she came from

Many people find it hard just to hang on

You often find them in the same place
complaining

Instead of finding a better way of maintain

She could have balled up and cry

Wished that she would die

And just gave up on tryin

Instead she grind from the bottom

Just to make it to the bottom now shes flying



[Chorus]
