Can't Keep a Good Girl Down
Well, you can break my heart, try and wreck my reputation
You can rip me off and dump me at the train station
But it don't matter what you spread around
Because you can't keep a good girl down
She'll find a way to take the higher ground, yeah
'Cause she knows one it's gonna come back around
No, you can't keep a good girl down
No siree, Bob! Are you listening to me now?
Well, you can tear me up and put your pistol in my face
You can cuss and yell all over the place
Oh, it just don't matter how you cock around
Because you can't keep a good girl down
She'll find a way to take the higher ground, yeah
'Cause she knows one it's gonna come back around
No, you can't keep a good girl down
Oh, yeah
In the long run you ain't gonna win
Because all good girls land on their feet again, yeah
You can ignore me, be cold and complacent
Take on a new love as my replacement
It just don't matter who you toss around
Because, yeah yeah c'mon now
I said you can't keep a good girl down
She'll find a way to take the higher ground, yeah
'Cause she knows one it's gonna come back around
No, you can't keep a good girl down
Just try it now, well, are you listening to me honey?
Just try it now, I'll tell you now
Well, baby you know you just can't now
Can't keep a good girl down
She'll find a way to take the higher ground
Yeah! All right now
Can't keep a good girl down
