I am sinful, not trying to be saint,

Just want to live, not to complain.

I am a woman with a feminine beauty,

Just want to love, not to be snooty.

I can be giddy, behave as I am a queen,

But with an open soul say what I mean.

Down on earth I am, not in paradise

I get what I give, this I well realize.

I see the richness in the sun and the rain

Don’t like pittance, truth is the main.

Avoiding a scam, I am going my way,

I am as I am and as such I will stay.
