Career Girl

Now there was a time
When men made up our minds
Whether right or wrong with them we’d go along
But we found our tenderness
Doesn’t mean our weakness
Now universally we have a choice
And we can be
A career girl
And I can make my own way
I’m a career girl
I got to make my own way
Don’t misunderstand, I want a strong man
Who will marry me and raise a family
But if we can’t get along
And he wants to move on
I know financially I’m standing
On my own two feet
I’m a career girl
And I can make my own way
I’m a career girl
And I’ve gotta make my own way
Are you ready girls
We don’t have to depend on nobody
If we don’t want to — no
Cause it’s a new day
And we’ll make our own way — yeah
And if he leaves
Don’t feel like there’s nothing you can’t do
Be a career girl
Say yeah yeah
Say yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
I’ve got to make my own way
Don’t misunderstand, I want a strong man
Who will marry me and raise a family
But if we can’t get along
