Bring the bacon and I'll put it in the pan
Got my own, baby, life is grand
Every move I make is just a part of my plan
And I do it just because you said I can't
Do I look like
The step-and-fetch type?
I'm a whole lotta grown-ass American woman
Do I look like
The walk-all-over-me type?
I'm a whole lotta strong-ass American woman
I know my worth and who I am
Mister if you're hard up, I can spare a few grand
Hell will freeze over and I'll be damned
'Fore I take orders from any ol' man
Do I look like
The step-and-fetch type?
I'm a whole lotta grown-ass American woman
Do I look like
The walk-all-over-me type?
I'm a whole lotta strong-ass American woman
I'm a whole lotta, show stopper
Mississippi, New York City, you better treat me proper
I'm a whole lotta, you gotta
Recognize a real-ass woman, if you can't, don't bother
I'm a whole lotta, show stopper
Mississippi, New York City, you better treat me proper
I'm a whole lotta, you gotta
Recognize a real-ass woman, if you can't, don't bother
To all my headstrong women
Single mamas with the children
Three jobs and something to prove
Go along and work your way through school
Don't let 'em put you in a corner
'Cause it's a new world order
You're a star, you're under strife
Make 'em salute you like a flag on the fourth of July
(Make 'em salute you like a flag on the fourth of July)
I'm a whole lotta, show stopper
Mississippi, New York City, you better treat me proper
I'm a whole lotta, you gotta
Recognize a real-ass woman, if you can't, don't bother
I'm a whole lotta, show stopper
Mississippi, New York City, you better treat me proper
I'm a whole lotta, you gotta
Recognize a real-ass woman, if you can't, don't bother
I'm a whole lotta grown-ass American woman
