A Place of Her Own

She got a job at a diner in the south slope
 It's a nice place in its own way
 She had to move back to Queens with her mom though
 She takes the F train, it's a long way
 ♪
 Charlie's walkin' now, she knows that he'd be proud
 She wakes up early in the mornin' for the F train
 And she's makin' her way and she's makin' her pay in the South Slope
 It's a nice place
 ♪
 He left a hole the size of the world
 And she ain't never had nothin', wasn't askin' for gold
 Just a place of her own
 Place of her own
 Place of her own
 Carve out a space, just enough to breathe
 For the long nights of uncertainty
 Place of her own
 Place of her own
 Place of her own
 Summer's so hot and winter's so cold
 On the F train to the South Slope
 And most people are okay in their own way
 It's a nice way, but it's a long way
