Don't Need To Take It Like A Man

DON’T NEED TO TAKE IT LIKE A MAN


ADDIOS TO THE MONEY
SE’ LA VI TO THE BLING
CLEANING HOUSE FOR A WHILE
BUT NOT OUT OF THE SCENE
CLEAN THE POOL TRANFSER SCHOOLS
CANCEL SPA, MARDI GRAS
DUMP THE ROSES IN THE FOYER,
SEASON TICKETS TO THE LAWYER

IF IT WASN’T FOR THE MONEY
IF IT WASN’T FOR THE MONEY
THINGS WOULDN’T BE SO CRAZY
CAUSE I’M A LADY FROM TEXAS
TALL, LONG AND MEAN
AND GIRLS DOWN IN TEXAS
DON’T NEED TO TAKE IT LIKE A MAN

(MY) PHONES FULL OF NUMBERS
NOT ONE I CAN STAND
ID SHOOT MYSELF FIRST
IF I WAS CAUGHT IN A JAM
SIGN THE PAPERS STUFF THE NEIGHBORS
GET THIS SHOW ON THE ROAD
AINT NO MORAL TO THE STORY
BEST ITS NEVER TOLD

IF IT WASN’T FOR THE MONEY
IF IT WASN’T FOR THE MONEY
THINGS WOULDN’T BE SO CRAZY
CAUSE I’M A LADY FROM TEXAS
TALL LEAN AND MEAN
AND GIRLS DOWN IN TEXAS
DON’T NEED TO TAKE IT LIKE A MAN

I AIN’T THE GIRL TO TAKE THIS LYING DOWN
I AIN’T THE GIRL TO LET THEM PUSH ME AROUND
IM GONNA SET THEM STRAIGHT, THE TEXAS WAY
CAUSE GIRLS DOWN IN TEXAS
DON’T NEED TO TAKE IT LIKE A MAN

SOLO INTERLUDE
