[Dolly Parton - A Little at a Time lyrics]
Well, the lady said will this be cash and
I thought boy if that'en ain't a laugh
Why I don't carry money of that kind
Just put it on my charge account on
Account of I can't pay you now
I'll pay for it a little at a time
I'm just an average working girl trying to
Get along in this old world
Looking for that rich man I might find
But up 'til now, the times are hard
I'm living on my credit card
And paying for life a little at time
A little at a time that's how I pay my bills
That's the story of the working girl
Always going overboard buying things
I can't afford
In this charge account, credit card
Pay for it a little at a time world
Mmm, hmmm
My weekly check don't amount to a lot but
I'm making payments on what I got
At the end of the month I
Ain't got one thin dime
And this old car I bought brand new
But I'm still payin' on it too
I've been payin' for it a little at a time
Got a new apartment
I just moved in and I'll do
Well to pay the rent
It's unfurnished so a bargain I must find
I saw a sign in a store downtown
House goods for nothing down
Pay for it a little at a time
A little at a time that's how I pay my bills
That's the story of the working girl
Always going overboard buying things
I can't afford
In this charge account, credit card
Pay for it a little at a time world
Mmm, hmmm
I want to pay on my layaway here's
A dollar on my mink collar
I thought boy if that'en ain't a laugh
Why I don't carry money of that kind
Just put it on my charge account on
Account of I can't pay you now
I'll pay for it a little at a time
I'm just an average working girl trying to
Get along in this old world
Looking for that rich man I might find
But up 'til now, the times are hard
I'm living on my credit card
And paying for life a little at time
A little at a time that's how I pay my bills
That's the story of the working girl
Always going overboard buying things
I can't afford
In this charge account, credit card
Pay for it a little at a time world
Mmm, hmmm
My weekly check don't amount to a lot but
I'm making payments on what I got
At the end of the month I
Ain't got one thin dime
And this old car I bought brand new
But I'm still payin' on it too
I've been payin' for it a little at a time
Got a new apartment
I just moved in and I'll do
Well to pay the rent
It's unfurnished so a bargain I must find
I saw a sign in a store downtown
House goods for nothing down
Pay for it a little at a time
A little at a time that's how I pay my bills
That's the story of the working girl
Always going overboard buying things

In this charge account, credit card
Pay for it a little at a time world
Mmm, hmmm
