Lyrics

WATCH ME NOW

One more day, one more dollar,
Lipstick on and hair all straight.
Nice face, fine lace, into the mans race.
They don?t know it but I punch my weight.
I can do it all and then some more,
I think on my feet and I?m fast on the floor.

Watch me now, nobody stop me.
Just cos I?m pretty don?t mean I?m weak.
I?m not gonna stop till I?ve had enough.
And I don?t get going till the going gets tough.

Watch me now, here I come,
Living in a mans world, having some fun.
Help if you want but just don?t stop me.
Gonna do it my way, just you watch me.

One more week, one more paycheck.
High heels on for the boardroom boys.
Wake up, make up, working out to shape up,
This here girl aint a boardroom toy.
I can do it all and then some more.
I think on my feet and I?m fast on the floor.

Watch me now, nobody stop me.
Just cos I?m pretty don?t mean I?m weak.
I?m not gonna stop till I?ve had enough.
And I don?t get going till the going gets tough.

Watch me now, here I come,
Living in a mans world, having some fun.
Help if you want but just don?t stop me.
Gonna do it my way, just you watch.

I think this song would be better off as a straight country track. It is a little bit country/pop/rock. I think the lyrics are fun and could be appreciated by many. I think the vocals are strong and stylish. There is obviously an "empowerment" message here which could be marketable in various ways.
