Gitta.

She is a good woman
she lights a chord
lights on her cigarette
and drinks to the board

while the tender is brilliant
billowing bright
the good woman smiles
she shouts and she cries

She is a good woman!
She is worth what she takes!
And she'll take what they give her
whatever the stake

For she's a good woman
and she calls me her friend
Yah- she's a good woman
with tears in her gin

her eyes large with ages
with hours of proof
she spills me her secrets
'cause her Englisch ist gut!

and her embrace is longing
we've said what we can
She is a good woman
her drink warm in her hand

thirteen on her tab
she can never afford
but she takes what she's given
she deserves what she's served

For it's never her fault.
She's worked for it all.
She is a good woman
in breaking she calls

"I am a good woman!"
"One of millions." she sighs
"I am a good woman."
"I am a good woman."
"I am a good woman."
She lies.
