4 In the Morning

It's four in the morning
Its dark outside
And I am rising early
Before everyone else
Ready to push myself
And go running
While delivering papers.

A girls gotta do
What a girls gotta do
To become a champion

Dressed in a rain jacket and rain pants
Feet flying along the pavement
Music blaring from my cellphone
Papers flung onto lawns
Deer being startled
Rabbits quick as can be hopping across lawns.

A girls gotta do 
What a girls gotta do 
To become a champion

It's four in the morning
Its dark outside
And I am rising early
Before everyone else
Ready to push myself
And become a champion 

A girls gotta do 
What a girls gotta do 
To become a champion
