G Well, she was silent as he paid her C G But the thanks she got was next to none D G C And as her car pulled out of the motel G D She felt the presence of someone G Am G And that's when she got religion C In the front of a compact Ford G C G Just a gentle voice on the stereo (stereo) C G Now she's a working girl who loves the lord
