Faint Of Heart Song Lyrics
Faint Of Heart by Sister C Verse I
Hey little girl climbing high up in that tree
Muddy bare feet and scr*pes on both your knees
Double dog dare from the boy next door
Anything he can do you can do more
So youâre up there, trying to prove that youâre not scared
If things only stayed as simple as those days
Back when being fast meant youâre gonna win that race
When a hoe was a tool in the garden shed
Passing home base meant youâre team was ahead
At the ball game, when you grow up thatâll all change
Chorus
You can get knocked up, you can get knocked down
Yea you paint your nails and lips and eyes
Suck it in and work it out
Youâre uptight if you donât go far enough
Easy if you go too far
Being a woman, aint for the faint of heart
Verse II
So dress up pretty, and sit with your legs crossed
Cause the boy who copied all your tests is now your boss
He makes more money than youâll ever bring home
Because you gotta double x chromosome
Thatâs the way it is, maybe timeâs gonna change it
Chorus
But you can get knocked up, you can get knocked down
Yea you paint your nails and lips and eyes
Suck it in and work it out
Youâre uptight if you donât go far enough
Easy if you go too far
Being a woman, aint for the faint of heart
Bridge
Weâll all get together and complain that it ainât fair
But in the end weâll outlive em by 15 years
And still have all our hair
Chorus
But you can get knocked up, you can get knocked down
Yea you paint your nails and lips and eyes
Suck it in and work it out
Youâre uptight if you donât go far enough
Easy if you go too far
Being a woman, aint for the faint of heart
