Isabel says that |
|
She don't need diamond rings |
|
No house in the hills |
|
No weekends in Palm Springs |
|
She just wants a guy who'll |
|
Love her and won't beat her all the time |
|
Is that too much to ask? |
|
She works everyday for |
|
A family by the beach |
|
The glow of the good life |
|
Seems so out of reach |
|
The hours on the bus and |
|
The dealers on the corner by her home |
|
It's so hard to face America alone |
|
And Isabel says that |
|
Maybe she'd be better off back home |
|
South of the border |
|
In the shadow of a bright green volcano |
|
There isn't much work there |
|
And her father likes to drink more |
|
Than he should |
|
But there's a boy there who loves her |
|
And he'd treat her real good |
|
Sunday she's free and |
|
She spends it in her room |
|
She shuts out the city |
|
The danger and the gloom |
|
She reads gossip websites |
|
And chats with her beloved back at home |
|
It's so hard to face America alone |
