I talked to gramma just the other day
|
she said girlchild time you get things straight
|
and with the time, get with the time
|
do what you want girl, and do it all the time
|
|
she said when I was a girl no one cared, they just thought me crazy
|
when my opinions shared time with their minds, so unkind
|
the way they pushed me down, pushed me around
|
and made me sorry, that I had a mouth
|
|
get with the time, girlchild don't expect him to see
|
what a beautiful woman should be
|
it's your time girlchild, if he don't like it there's one right behind...
|
|
she said girlchild don't be afraid to
|
come forward and let your voice be heard
|
don't let nobody make you so scared
|
you can't get to where you're going, where are you going...
|
|
get with the time, girlchild don't expect them to see
|
what a beautiful woman should be
|
it's your time girlchild, if he don't like it there's one right behind...
|
|
grandmother, mother, child, sister and wife
|
|
do you want me, I'm much more than a body
|
to be looked at by your ugly expression
|
of what a beautiful woman should be
|
|
grandmother, mother, child, my sisters and wives
|
|
make it hot, so hot that they scream it, what a beautiful woman should be!!
|
it's your time girlchild, if he don't like it I got some friends in mind
|
cause you know, when it's time to go, get with, get with the time
|
grandmother, mother, child, sister and wife
|
|
love is in everything that you say
|
and everything that you do
|
get with the time, it's coming back to you
|
back to you...
