My son's girl friend was looking for a song for their new group, she did not like this, but I thought I would share.

The world is alive with happiness and grace
But I, the woman, don't live in satin and lace
Pick up your bottle, down the last drop
Two or three pills, you're off to shop
Down to the valley where all is right
Make the moves to a warm bed tonight
The world is alive with happiness and grace
But I, the woman, don't live in satin and lace
I'll sleep in the morning in some young man's bed
I'll take his ambition and leave him for dead
It is a glorious horse that I ride
All that it costs me is youth & pride
The world is alive with happiness and grace
But I, the woman, don't live in satin and lace
I stop at the window and watch rain
The baby kicks and brings on pain
Love is the window in which I live
Breath is the last thing I have to give
The world is alive with happiness and grace
And I the woman, no longer need satin and lace.
