she moved into the astro it was a second class motel where the owner was well adapted at how to put her through hell walls paper thin the neighbors often yelled you'd have been better off half a mile down the street at a place called the wishing well down the avenue santa rosa she got a job cuttin' hair times were tight most of the time she was sittin' in the ez chair after bout a week she wanted to get get out of there when antonia told her the news she acted like she didn't even care. funny how, She said, i used to be the one to scoff at the lady who i look like today better watch out who you're laughing at honey just might be you some day. Used to think that i was invincible Some misplaced joan of ark- here i am now with a baby by my side and i'm living in juilliard park. me and burpo were laughing we didn't get to where we were going to he stopped laughing, looked me in the eye. What are you lookin' at? man? he said, you. ya think you're pretty clever, you think you're pretty smart better watch out if you wanna be a work of art walkin' and i'm walkin' and i'm waitin' watchin' and i'm watchin' hesitatin 2x She's doin' a little better now got a house down on grand avenue She doesn't have the same kind of problems she used to have a year ago or two. She works down at the center She's helpin' the strong she's helpin' the weak i got one goal, she said, gonna try to be good to everyone i meet. walkin' and i'm walkin' and i'm waitin' watchin' and i'm watchin' hesitatin 2x
