She was only seventeen  In her prime of life she was lean  And her only dream was to be on the silver screen  She hailed from north of Baltimore  Her mama says she'd end up a whore  And she spent up all her dough at the movie show    She's all go go go yeah yeah  She wears her pants on her hips too low  She learned it all in magazines  She's Magdalene  Ain't it funny how the sun shines ?    She was only seventeen  She packed her bag and went to the scene  She said I'm gonna take on this town I'm gonna be the queen  She mingled like she'd been there before  She worked it till they hollered for more  Then she took off all her clothes  Now everybody knows    She's all go go go yeah yeah  She wears her pants on her hips too low  She learned it all in magazines  She's magdalene  Ain't it funny how the sun shines?    Oh no no, she's all go go go yeah yeah  She wears her pants on her hips too low  She learned it all in magazines  She's magdalene  Ain't it funny how the sun shines?
