According to her ma, according to 
her pa
And everybody said
That she knew no sin and did no 
wrong
Till she walked the streets of the

Of the big black smoke

Well she slept in cafes and coffee 
bars and bowling alleys
                     Em G D
And every penny she had
      G

For a boy named Joe
And he took the money for the rent
Tried to drag her down in the big 
black smoke
In the big black smoke
