[Verse 1]
Baby, been workin' for that paper like crazy
9 to 5, every day, nonstop, there might be payment
I'm good at what I do, ya know?
Call me so professional
Times been tougher lately
I feel like I been losin' it, honey
Need a break, need a breath, need a kiss
Oh, won't you save me?
I've held it down for way too long
I forgot to have some fun
[Chorus]
Can you let me be a girl? Can I put my lipstick on?
Get sexy for myself, you can't tell me it's wrong
And if I wanna cry, I'll be cryin' like a child
Sometimes it gets hard, bein' a woman
24/7 days a week, uh-uh, yeah, 24/7 (24/7, 24/7)
24/7 days a week, uh-uh, yeah, 24/7 (24/7, 24/7)
[Verse 2]
Baby, a diamond's made by pressure, try and break me
Never can, never will, never could, nothin' can phase me
And when life gets too serious, get wild, get delirious (Aye)
Baby, I gotta let my hair down, need to feel free now
Take me out on the town, engage me now
'Cause I forgot to have some fun
[Chorus]
Can you let me be a girl? Can I put my lipstick on?
Get sexy for myself, you can't tell me it's wrong
And if I wanna cry, I'll be cryin' like a child
Sometimes it gets hard, bein' a woman
24/7 days a week, uh-uh, yeah, 24/7 (24/7, 24/7)
24/7 days a week, uh-uh, yeah, 24/7 (24/7, 24/7)
[Bridge]
24/7 (24/7)
24/7 (24/7)
24/7 days a week, uh-huh
24/7 (24/7)
24/7 (24/7)
24/7 days a week
[Chorus]
Can you let me be a girl? Can I put my lipstick on?
Get sexy for myself, you can't tell me it's wrong
And if I wanna cry, I'll be cryin' like child
'Cause sometimes it gets hard, bein' a woman
24/7 days a week, uh-uh, yeah, 24/7 (24/7, 24/7)
24/7 days a week, uh-uh, yeah, 24/7 (24/7, 24/7)
