C#5
one little girl
A5
told to know her place
C#5
told she must believe
A5
and do what he says
C#5
one little girl
A5
taught that she is small
C#5
taught that she is less
A5
and man's decree is law

A5                    A5
one little boy who'd know her too well
         B5                   C#5
but that one little boy could send her to hell
A5                    A5
one little man who'd care if she cried
         B5                   C#5
but that one little man could leave her
                   A5  C#5  A5
and then she'd die

C#5
one little girl
A5
is beaten 'till she faints
C#5
told her that this is love
A5
told her that she would have to take it
C#5
one little girl
   A5
is just a bit confused
C#5                  A5
thought that she was human too

one little boy who'd know her too well
         B5                   C#5
but that one little boy could send her to hell
A5                    A5
one little man who'd care if she cried
         B5                   C#5

couldn't run away
C#5
anywhere she'd go
A5
the rules and men the same
C#5
one little girl
A5
couldn't take the pain
C#5                  A5
numbed herself 'till none remained
