She Was Not Good Enough
Just not good enough
She was no pretty face
No word of love and no praise
She picked up cleaning in the morning hours
Too much filth and too much stink was in the air
She was not good enough
She worked steady, she worked hard
To wipe out every dirty little spot
Because no child of God
No child of God
No child of God she was
Laughs and jokes from her friends
Fueled other sentiments
Werewolves and fairies came flying in
No one else could reach out to the stars
And when a lonely child
Opens the door at night
Longing for some comfort
Gets the devil's sweet sympathy
No child of God
No child of God
No child of God she was
With a newborn in her hands
And with a stitch in her soul
With the sorrow of the lost ones
Caught up in the undertow
And when a lonely child
Knocks at your door at night
Crying out all the names
Please Lord have mercy and take her in
No child of God, no child of God
No child of God she was
No child of God she was
