Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album goodbye yellow brick road
I've seen a lot of women who haven't had much luck
I've seen you looking like you've been run down by a truck
That ain't nice to say sometimes i guess i'm really hard
But i'm gonna put buckshots in your pants if you step into my yard
When i watch the police come by and move you on
Well i sometimes wonder what's beneath the mess you've become
Well you may have been a pioneer in the trade of women's wear
But all you got was a mop up job washing other people's stairs
I'm gonna tell the world, you're a dirty little girl
Someone grab that bitch by the ears
Rub her down scrub her back
And turn her inside out
`cause i bet she hasn't had a bath in years
Here's my own belief about all the dirty girls
That you have to clean the oyster to find the pearl
And like rags that belong to you i belong to myself
So don't show up around here till your social worker's helped
