Her sign said, "will work for food"
And right about now, what I usually do, is look the other way
Oh, but not today
When I looked into her eyes, my heart began to sink
Because I saw my daughter's face and I couldn't help but think
She's somebody's little girl, in her Sunday dress with her hair in curls
Then she smiled and looked at me, for a moment I don't see
Someone who's been to the darkest corners of this world
All I see is somebody's little girl
She couldn't be more than twenty-five
I swear she hasn't even been alive long enough
Oh, for life to get that tough
I handed her some money, wishing there was more that I could do
She smiled and said, "God bless you, sir" and it broke my heart in two
She's somebody's little girl, in her Sunday dress with her hair in curls
Then she smiled and looked at me, for a moment I don't see
Someone who's been to the darkest corners of this world
All I see is somebody's little girl
I asked her if she'd be okay, she said, "it's just another day"
Then she pointed up and said, "he looks out for me"
And I knew right then, she'd always be
Somebody's little girl, in her Sunday dress with her hair in curls
Then she smiled and looked at me, for a moment I don't see
Someone who's been to the darkest corners of this world
All I see is somebody's little girl
Oh, somebody's little girl
