Describes Sunshine's second marriage.

Give it up for the girl,
she's got it together now.
Give it up for the girl,
she'll make it without you somehow.

What could she do when she'd given to you
all that her heart had to give.
For only so long could you do her so wrong
she found somewhere else to live.
Once when she was young and ever so free
she thought that it might be all right.
But you dragged her so down she had
to leave town or totally give up the fight.
Give it up for the girl,
she's got it together now.
Give it up for the girl,
she'll make it without you somehow.

Yeah she gave to you all she had to give
and you threw it back in her face.
So look in the mirror for you are to blame.
Here I am, and I'll take your place.
I'll treat her the way she always should be
and one day I pray she'll forget.
And then she will be all wild and free.
Then with her my life will be set.
Give it up for the girl,
she's got it together now.
Give it up for the girl,
she'll make it without you somehow.
