Go Getter
Royal Deluxe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Whatever she wants, she ain't afraid to take
So just don't get in her way- that girl's a real go-getter
I tug on the collar, of my turtleneck sweater
Cause I'm feeling the heat - that girl's a real go-getter

She's wearing that dress, and no one ever looked better
I love the way that she moves, that girl's a real go-getter
She's licking her lips; yes she's making ‘em wetter
She knows, I know, that girl's a real go-getter

Go-getter, Go-getter
Go-getter, That girl is a real go-getter
Go-getter, Go-getter
Go-getter, That girl is a real go get

She painted her face; She's wearing her leather
She's coming for you; you'll never ever forget her
She sharpened her arrows; she put on her feathers
She's going to war, that girl's a real go-getter

Go-getter, Go-getter
Go-getter, That girl is a real go-getter
Go-getter, Go-getter
Go-getter, That girl is a real go-getter





Go-getter, Go-getter
Go-getter, That girl is a real go-getter
