I've been running outta patience Playing way above my station I must have forgot my place And got confused again 'Cause I've been thinking for myself see Standing up on my own two feet But people really wanna shoot me down-d-down again Oh I know what they say Honey, I should be afraid 'Cause I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl Got a brain and got a voice I should leave it to the boys Cos I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl I won't be quiet, I'm gonna breathe fire Oh you're never gonna drown me out Never gonna push me down So it's time for a change Cos you'll never hear me say That I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl Sick of being told I'm bossy 'Cause I won't let nobody boss me People need to smell that coffee And put the past to bed See ladies need to be united It ain't about who comes out highest They only wanna see us divided To knock us down again Oh I know what they say Honey, I should be afraid 'Cause I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl Got a brain and got a voice I should leave it to the boys Cos I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl I won't be quiet, I'm gonna breathe fire Oh you're never gonna drown me out Never gonna push me down So it's time for a change 'Cause you'll never hear me say That I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl No, I don't need nobody here holding my hand Sing it loud if you wanna stand I promise that I, oh I will be nothing but real to myself Oh I know what they say Honey, I should be afraid 'Cause I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl Got a brain and got a voice I should leave it to the boys 'Cause I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl I won't be quiet, I'm gonna breathe fire Oh you're never gonna drown me out Never gonna push me down So it's time for a change 'Cause you'll never hear me say That I'm just a girl, I'm just a girl
