She'd been walking around the town
2500 days yeah
Quiet, pleasant, polite
Somehow her dignity stayed yeah
Oh brother
Where did she sleep what did she eat?
No one knows, but you can guarantee somebody paid
Every day on the edge of life
Every day she's in someone's way
Every person she ever liked
Went away
But I figured it out
(Hey girl! You gotta get up)
She figured it out
(Hey girl! You gotta get up)
But they didn't wanna know
Cause she's the girl
The girl who cried slow
From a stolen sense of pride
To finally getting a wage
All her fortunes turned like tides
The money rolled in like waves
Oh brother
From zero regard, people paid for her time
She was in the same body
Ain't it funny how opinions change
Every person she met was nice
All the people wanna be her friend
She's a million-dollar brand
Oh what does that say?
She finally figured it out
(Hey girl! You gotta get up)
She figured it out
(Hey girl! You gotta get up)
But they didn't wanna know
'Cause she's the girl
The girl who cried slow
The girl who cried slow
She's the girl who cried slow
Yeah
Finally figured it out
(Hey girl! You gotta get up)
She figured it out
(Hey girl! You gotta get up)
Oh yeah the girl who cried slow
'Cause she's the girl
But they didn't wanna know
The girl who cried slow
The girl who cried slow
The girl who cried slow
