Kick Up Those Heels Woman

So your world ain’t gardenias, or lightning bolts or honey
So you ain’t making a difference, and you’re long out of money.
So your day is gloomy, overcast, and your outlook is not sunny.

Kick up those heels, show us your gams.
Throw away the absolute’s, become a ham.
Shake your bootie baby, shake your boots.
Release yourself, find your dance roots!

So your day is bad, and your boyfriend is a absolute heel.
Here is the scoop, woman, the utmost big deal.
Be yourself, don’t let others attitudes darken your wheel.
‘
Kick up those heels, show us your strength
Throw away the rules, who cares what others think?
Twirl and whirl as hard as you can away from that man.
Give yourself a break, enjoy your life as much as you can!
