Cm So what am I not supposed to have an opinion Should I be quiet just because I'm a woman G# Call me a bitch cos I speak what's on my mind Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled Fm When a female fires back Suddenly big talker don't know how to act Cm So he does what any little boy will do Making up a few false rumors or two Fm That for sure is not a man to me Slanderin' names for popularity Cm It's sad you only get your fame through controversy But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say Chorus: Cm This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth G# Thinking all women should be seen, not heard So what do we do girls? Shout out loud! Cm Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave them proud G# Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down Cm Nobody can hold us down Nobody can hold us down G# Nobody can hold us down Never can, never will So what am I not supposed to say what I'm saying Are you offended by the message I'm bringing Call me whatever cos your words don't mean a thing Guess you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing If you look back in history It's a common double standard of society The guy gets all the glory the more he can score While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore I don't understand why it's okay The guy can get away with it & the girl gets named All my ladies come together and make a change Start a new beginning for us everybody sing Chorus: This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard What do we do girls? Shout out loud! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down Check it - Here's something I just can't understand If the guy have three girls then he's the man He can either give us some head, sex her off If the girl do the same, then she's a whore But the table's about to turn I'll bet my fame on it Cats take my ideas and put their name on it It's aiight though, you can't hold me down I got to keep on movin' To all my girls with a man who be tryin to mack Do it right back to him and let that be that You need to let him know that his game is whack And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back But you're just a little boy Think you're so cute, so coy You must talk so big To make up for smaller things So you're just a little boy All you'll do is annoy You must talk so big To make up for smaller things Chorus: This is for my girls... This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard So what do we do girls? Should out loud! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down This is for my girls all around the world Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth Thinking all women should be seen, not heard So what do we do girls? Should out loud! Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud Take a deep breath and say it loud Never can, never will, can't hold us down Spread the word, can't hold us down | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsCm Fm G# Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
