Lyrics

There she is laughing loud and having fun
Flirting with all the men as the women rage
She doesn't care what they say about her ways
It's her life to live not theirs to waste

(chorus)
You're not supposed to be that kind of girl today
Just smile real pretty and collect that pay

Getting high on the weekends with her friends
They all dream of being something else
Candy wants to dance on her toes
And Ginny wants to make her film

(repeat chorus)

Late at night in bed she's all alone
Cigarretts and vodka beside the phone
Secred lovers she knows just a call away
She says no thanks this time and waits for day

(repeat chorus)
