[Words of a Strong Woman]
I can't let you take my heart
You're off to get married, looking for someone, yeah, you're going
I'm just here, worried about your sweet taste
But the woman you're looking for is just for marriage
If you deny it, deny it to your head
You set it, you set it to your head
I'm setting them for your strength
I'm setting my mind, I'm standing at the marriage door, suffering, begging them
Now whoever can't handle it, they can deal with their own head, they can handle it!
[Music]
Bring on the butterflies, bring on the Karaba
I can't let it go
I can't let it go
Bring on the butterflies, bring on the Karaba
I can't let it go
I can't let it go-
I hear the drums, at night they’re playing
They’re playing, they’re playing
Don’t stick around, don’t mess with me, if the spirit won’t break
I can't let it go
I’m just a bad girl
I’m just a bad girl
I’m just a bad girl
I’m just a bad girl
I can't be just a sad woman who’s lost her color
Sign me up for the mango
Badja or with the wind, it’s coming
I won’t beg to die
I can't be just a sad woman who’s lost her color
Sign me up for the mango
Badja or with the wind, it’s coming
I can't let it go, it can't let it go
I can't let it go, it can't let it go
I can't let it go
I’m just a bad girl
I’m just a bad girl
I’m just a bad girl
I’m just a bad girl
(I’m just a bad girl)
(Sizzle, sizzle, it’s in the air, it’s in the air)
(Sizzle, sizzle, it’s signed, it’s signed)
(Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle)
