A puddle for a mirror, admirin' the dress
That is draggin' on the ground, so pleased with how she's
Put herself together: The plastic handbag, the two left shoes
And the floppy hat she found in the garbage
She cleans off the dirt
And for a moment she forgets to hurt
She's the queen for a day
She holds her head high
Her crown is her hope
Her robe is her pride
Her spirit is strong
Today nothing's wrong
She's the queen for a day
Early next mornin' she watches her brother
Go off to school and wonders what it's
Like to water color or read from a book
That is not just pictures, and picture girls
Who never are hungry, have blankets and a bed
And in that picture in her head
With the floppy hat on and faith in her heart
No one can tell her she's not
