Furando a vida delaPrying into her life
Ela realmente era esposa de alguém?Was she really someone's wife
E onde ele estava?And where was he

Ela frequentemente chorava ao serem embora, sem um pingo de orgulhoShe often cried as they left her without a shred of pride

Ela tinha tantas coisas pra pensarShe had so many things to think about
Tantas crianças pra alimentarSo many children to feed
Ela precisava de algo que acalmasse sua menteShe had need of something that would ease her mind
(Religião de fachada--jogar na loteria)(Store-front religion--play the numbers)
Ela teve problemas em seu tempoShe had trouble in her time
Ela teve tantos problemas em seu tempoShe had so much trouble in her time
