High school daydreams come easy and free
When you're a working woman watcha gonna be?
A senator, a surgeon ? aim for the heights
But the guidance office says lower your sights to
59 cents for every man's dollar
59 cents ? it's a lowdown deal
59 cents makes a grown woman holler:
They give you a diploma; it's you're paycheck they steal.
She's off to college, the elite kind
To polish her manners, sharpen her mind
Honors in English, letter in lacrosse
Types her to type for her favorite boss at
59 cents for every man's dollar
59 cents ? it's a lowdown deal
59 cents makes a grown woman holler:
They give you a degree; it's you're paycheck they steal.
Junior executive on her way up
Special assistant to the man at the top
She's one in a million and all she found
Was her own secretary now to order around at
59 cents for every man's dollar
59 cents ? it's a lowdown deal
59 cents makes a grown woman holler:
They give you a title; it's you're paycheck they steal.
But the word is being processed in the typing pool
A working woman ain't nobody's fool
She's telling the boss on Secretary's Day:
You can keep your flowers, buddy, give me a raise more than
59 cents for every man's dollar
59 cents ? oh the deal has changed
59 cents makes a grown woman holler
You can keep your flowers, buddy, give us a raise!

Here is an affable, talented kiwi.
CART forever.
