Mary J. Blige - Work That lyrics
rate meWork your thing out (out, out)
Cause so many you girls I hear you been running
From the beautiful queen that you can be becommin
You can look in my palm and see the storm coming
Read the book of my life and see of overcomming
Just because the length of your hair ain't long
And they often criticize you for your skin tone
Wanna hold your head high cause you a pretty woman
Get your front way stride home and keep it going
Girl, live your life
I just wanna be myself
Don't sweat girl be yourself
Follow me, follow me, follow me
Girl be yourself
Guess what I'll be myself
(And I grew to love it)
(Work your thing out...)
Let em get mad
They're gonna hate any weight
Don't you get that
Doesn't matter if you go along with their plan
They'll never be happy
Cause they're not happy with themselves
(I am. work what you got...)
I'm talking about things that I know
(I am. work what you got...)
It's okay show yourself some love
(I am. work what you got...)
Don't worry about who's saying what
(It's gonna be fine work what you got)
Work what you got
Feeling great because the light's on me
Celebrating the things that everyone told me Would never happen but
God has put his hands on me
And ain't a man alive could ever take it from me
Workin with what I got I gotta
Keep on taking care of myself
I wanna live long
Ain't never ashamed what life did to me
Wasn't afraid to change
Cause it was good for me
I wanna
(I just wanna be myself)
I just wanna be
(don't sweat girl be yourself)
Don't sweat girl
(Follow me, follow me, follow me I be myself)
Follow me follow me
(Guess what I'll be myself)
(And I grew to love it)
(Work your thing out)
Let em get mad
They gonna hate any weight
Don't you get that
Doesn't matter if you go along with their plan
They'll never be happy
Cause thier not happy with themselves
(I am. work what you got...)
I'm talking about things that I know
(I am. work what you got...)
It's okay show yourself some love
(I am. Work what you got)
Don't worry about who's saying what
(It's gonna be fine work what you got)
Work what you got
(Work that, work that, work that, don't' hold back just be yourself)
Work that work that
Work that work that don't hold back
Oooh
Work you head girl
(work you thing out)
Work that job girl
Work what you got
(I am. work what you got...)
I'm talking about things that I know
(I am. work what you got...)
It's okay show yourself some love
(I am. Work what you got)
Don't worry about who's saying what
(It's gonna be fine work what you got)
Work what you got
(Busta Rhymes)
You know i got you mary
get your money baby
handle yo biz
dont worry bout the next person you should be proud of who you is
see life might not always be about diamonds and purses
and you not comfortable because your ass is not as big as hers
its low life baby
im still lovin you after all
i love hearin your voice every single time that i call
i appreciate your natural self down to the bone
and i appreciate what god gave ya
everythings ya own
and be the woman that i cherish and welcome inside my home
a womans chest is smaller but i aint knockin there cylicone
so chicks go off in deep end so nothing can save them for not appreciating themselves and what god gave ya
gettin lost walkin around frontin like they a star take time to research to try to figure out who you are
and once that gets done you can maniface on the surface
the only way you can love your self is to love what you got
(work that work that work that don't hold back just be yourself)
Work it out work it out ladies
Work that work that
Work that work that don't hold back
(Work your thing out)
Oooh
Work what you got
