A Woman's Gotta Do Her Thing

We’re all part of a collective - we’ve got motives and agendas
We’ve got deadlines and goals set - you know we do a lot of things
I can’t even list them - to remind me makes me sicken
I’m overwhelmed- I’m stricken -still I gotta do my thing
When I find myself a bad, bad mood
I’m puffy, I’m pissy, I’m pooped
I go face to face with what it takes,
To get my butt back in the groove
So do like me - go on a shopping spree
Retail therapy! A woman’s gotta do her thing

CHORUS
A woman’s gotta do what a woman’s gotta do
A woman’s gotta do what a woman she must do
Step back baby, a woman’s gotta do her thing
Do her thing, what’s her thing?

It’s late at night, you’re oh so blue, you’re home alone some ones’ calling you
It’s Ben, it’s Jerry, How ‘bout a hug? Open that freezer and feel that love
Take them to bed with you, hey girl get going
Take your tablespoon hey girl get going
Two pints should do, hey girl get going,
A woman’s gotta do her thing

CHORUS

When you need permission, remember this song
From someone who’s suffers like you
You’re the only one standing in your way
Girl go do, what you’re gonna do
No need to talk about it
No need to dance around it
Shut up and do
A woman’s gotta do her thing
I said…

A woman’s gotta do what a woman’s gotta do
A woman’s gotta do what a woman she must do
Step back baby, get on your Nikes, baby
Don’t need a doctor’s note - nobody gets a vote
WHEN A WOMAN’S GONNA DO HER THING
