She is an inspiration to the battlers
Maria the woman who lives on Watt street.
She took a night job to put herself through Uni
And she’s worked very hard so her children could eat
Here is a woman who leads by example
And people like her do not hear of defeat.
She now has a job as a secondary school teacher
And she is much better off financially
She has achieved through her honest endeavour
Maria who worked so hard for her degree.
Though people like Maria don’t make the news headlines
Which is a reflection on society
Lets toast a person who has made it the hard way
For you won’t find many as noble as she.
Here is a song of a middle aged woman
A working class role model would you not agree?
Maria of Watt street leads by good example
And people like her are inspiring to me.
