Na na na diva is a female version of a hustla
Of a husla
Of a of a hustla
Na na na diva is a female version of a hustla
Of a husla
Of a of a hustla
Stop the track, let me state facts
I told you give me a minute, and I'll be right back
Fifty million 'round the world and they said that I couldn't get it
I done got so sick and filthy with Benjis I can't spend
How you gon' be talkin' shit?
You act like I just got up in it
Been the number one diva in this game for a minute
I know you read the paper, the one that they call a queen
Every radio 'round the world know me
'Cause that's where I be
I'm a I'm a a diva (hey)

When he pull up, wanna pop my hood up
Bet he better have a six pack, in the cooler
Getting money, divas getting money
If you ain't getting money then you ain't got nothing for me
Tell me somethin' (tell me somthin')
Where yo boss at? (where yo boss at?)
Where my ladies up in there that like to talk back?
(that like to talk back)
I wanna see ya (I wanna see her)
I'd like to meet cha (I wanna meet her)
What you said (not to me)
She ain't no diva (she ain't no diva)
Na na na diva is a female version of a hustla
Of a husla
Of a of a hustla
Na na na diva is a female version of a hustla

Since fifteen in my stilettos been struttin' in this game
What's yo age was the question they asked when I hit the stage

When I saw this video for the first time I thought "shit, she dances better than girls in the background." I don't know on purpose or not, but I still think she dances better. Maybe because the girls in the background dance as if it was their job (this is the case, I understand), but Beyonce dances lively and naturally. Brilliant
