When I was a little girl
My mama used to say
Don´t do this
Don´t do that
Now go outside and play
Well here I am
About five years old
Just another girl
Dancing on the doorstep to the world

And that´s where Cupid shoots
And Cupid fails
I´m not afraid to say
I´m seventeen
Right in between
But I know I´m on my way
The mirror tells me
You´re so fine
You should be having fun
But I´m standing on the crossroads
Of my highway to the sun

I gotta go for it
I gotta do it myself
Ain´t gonna get much help
From anybody else
And I do believe
It´s what I really want
To hang on to myself baby
I hang on to myself

Let me tell you
Today I´m still that little girl
I used to be back then
I don´t give up
I won´t give in
One day you´ll understand
Here I am
I sing this song
Not just another girl
Standing on the threshold to your world

You gotta go for it
You gotta do it yourself
Ain´t gonna get much help
From anybody else
So if you do believe
It´s what you really want
Just hang on to yourself baby
Just hang on to yourself

Hello?
Some people say
One day baby you will see
Who is this?
You´re gonna take that ride
For your destiny
It´s your bubble girl
You better grab it while you can

You gotta go for it
You gotta do it yourself
Ain´t gonna get much help
From anybody else
So if you do believe
It´s what you really want
Just hang on to yourself baby
Just hang on to yourself
