"The Girl Stands Up To Me Now" lyrics

"The Girl Stands Up To Me Now"

Well, the girl stands up to me now
More than she did before
I used to win all the arguments
When she felt inferior

But now the girl says yes when she means yes
The girl says no when she means no
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before

Well, now when she says no
It comes out smooth as silk
She don't act like no bad breakfast cereal
Waiting to wilt into milk

Because, the girl says yes when she means yes
The girl says no when she means no
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before

When she says no to me
It's just like the umpire's call
It's strike strike strike three buddy
And ball, ball, ball

Because the girl says yes when she means yes
The girl says no when she means no
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before

When she first said no
Ooh, that was rough
Well now, I think I like her better
Tough, tough, tough

Because the girl says yes when she means yes
The girl says no when she means no
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before
Oh, more than she did before
