Yo listen, I met this girl on Baltic Ave   And you can tell how she steps on Boardwalk   She was from Park Place   I asked what she was doing on this side of town   She said she had some taxes to pay      I figured I'd take a chance and advance to go   And find out more about her   'Cause there's more to know than the ways she sways   And the way that she wears her clothes   Or the way that she plays this game so cold      She said she came up rough   And the one income household was not enough   There'd be nights she'd go to sleep cold and hungry   'Cause her mom was always short on food and money      See people used to joke a lot   And tease her 'bout her clothes not bein' in style   Dressed in dingy skirts and dirty sneakers   From the finest second hand down on Oriental Ave      But now look at her, she got this game on lock   Anything that she ever wanted, now she got it   And I gotta say, I'm so proud to see   That someone like her is in control, womanopoly      Once she graduated Jr. High   She started working overtime   Scrubbing floors or working on assembly lines   Just so she could help her mother out      And after college they moved into Marvin's Garden   And she got a job working at the city water department   To save enough cash   To move into Community Chest condos on Pennsylvania Ave      She fell in love with this dude name Ray   Who was a small time hustler form St. Charles' Place   And he was known for always bein' in and out of trouble   But the problem was that he was never on her level      She argued with her mom about Ray's work   Till he got sent up state on the same say that she gave birth   But see the baby never made it   It drove her nearly crazy and she couldn't take it      But now look at her, she got this game on lock   Anything that she ever wanted, now she got it   And I gotta say, I'm so proud to see   That someone like her is in control, womanopoly      Listen, see where she came from   Many people find it hard just to hang on   You often find them in the same place complaining   Instead of finding a better way of maintaining      She could have balled up and cry   Wish that she would die and just gave up on trying   Instead she grind from the bottom just to make it to the bottom   Now she's on top and she's flying      But now look at her, she got this game on lock   Anything that she ever wanted   Now she got it and I gotta say, I'm so proud to see   That someone like her is in control, womanopoly      But now look at her, she got this game on lock   Anything that she ever wanted   Now she got it and I gotta say, I'm so proud to see   That someone like her is in control, womanopoly
