  • There she goes again (there she goes again)
    She's out on the streets again (there she goes again)
    She's down on her knees, my friend (there she goes again)
    But you know she'll never ask you please again (there she goes again)

    Now take a look, there's no tears in her eyes
    She won't take it from just any guy, what can you do (there she goes again)
    You see her walkin' on down the street (there she goes again)
    Look at all your friends she's gonna meet (there she goes again)
    You better hit her

    There she goes again (there she goes)
    She's knocked out on her feet again (there she goes)
    She's down on her knees, my friend (there she goes)
    But you know she'll never ask you please again (there she goes)

    Now take a look, there's no tears in her eyes
    Like a bird, you know she would fly, what can you do (there she goes)
    You see her walkin' on down the street (there she goes)
    Look at all your friends that she's gonna meet (there she goes)
    You better hit her

    Now take a look, there's no tears in her eyes
    Like a bird, you know she will fly, fly, fly away (fly, fly, fly)
    See her walking on down the street
    Look at all your friends that she's gonna meet

    She's gonna bawl and shout, she's gonna work it
    She's gonna work it out, bye bye
    Bye, bye, b-bye, bye, b-b-b-b-bye, bye, bye, baby
    She's all right Writer/s: Lou Reed
