Girls can too
Never give up, never give up, never give up
That's what my mama told me
Taking that chance, taking that chance, taking that chance
Would be the right thing for me

Now I, I've got the feeling
That I got what it takes
For me to be strong

Everyday, everyday, everyday
Feel like I'm number one and
Every way, every way, every way

I'm looking out for fun and now I
I've got the feeling that it's time to find out just where I belong

I just love trying the things that are new
Now I know what I want to do
So I'm gonna keep on trying
To make my dreams come true

The room is jumping
We'll dance until the dawn
Come with me
There's a party going on
The place is rocking
It's only just begun

I know the place to go
And we're gonna have some fun
'Cause anything that boys do
Don't you know that girls can too

Girls can too
Maybe it's time, maybe it's time, maybe it's time
For me to take control and
Maybe I know, maybe I know, maybe I know
It's time to take a hold and
Now I, I've got the feeling that
Totally I believe in myself

So now I know what I've got to do
I'm not that little girl you once knew
So I'm gonna keep on trying to make my dreams come true

The room is jumping
We'll dance until the dawn
Come with me
There's a party going on
The place is rocking
It's only just begun

I know the place to go
And we're gonna have some fun
'Cause anything that boys do
Don't you know that girls can too

Girls can too, yeah
Never give up
Never give up
Never give up
Yeah yeah

So now I know what I've got to do
I'm not that little girl you once knew
So I'm gonna keep on trying to make my dreams come true

The room is jumping
We'll dance until the dawn
Come with me
There's a party going on
The place is rocking
It's only just begun

I know the place to go
And we're gonna have some fun
'Cause anything that boys do
Don't you know that girls can too

The room is jumping
We'll dance until the dawn
Come with me
There's a party going on
The place is rocking
It's only just begun

I know the place to go
And we're gonna have some fun




'Cause anything that boys do
Don't you know that girls can too
