Can't Hold Us Down by Christina Aguilera
featuring Lil' Kim
So- (1)________ am I not s'pposed to have an opinion
Should I keep (2)__________ just because I'm a woman
Call me a bitch cause I speak what's on my mind
Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled
When a female (3)__________ back
Suddenly big talker don't know how to act
So he (4)________ what every little boy would do
Makin' up a few false rumors or two
That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin' names for popularity
It's sad you only get your (5)________ through controversy
But now it's time for me to come and give you (6)________ to say
CHORUS
This is for my (7)__________ all around the world
Who have come across a man who don't respect (8)________ worth
Thinkin' all women (9)____________ be seen not heard
So what do we do girls, shout out loud
Lettin' 'em (10)________ we're gonna stand our ground
So lift you hands higher and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can't hold us down
Nobody can (11)________ us down.
Never can never will.
So- What am I not (12)________________ to say what I'm saying
Are you offended with the message I'm bringin'
Call me whatever 'cause your words don't (13)________ a thing
Guess you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing
If you look back in history it's a common (14)____________ standard of society
The guy (15)________ all the (16)__________ the (17)________ he can score
While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
I don't understand why it's OK,
The guy gets all the glory and the girl gets named
All my ladies come (18)________________ and make a change
And start a new (19)__________________ for us, everybody sang
CHORUS-repeat
Lil' Kim:
Check it- Here's something I just can't understand
If the guy have three girls (20)________ he's the man
He can either give us some head, sex her off
If the girl can do the same, then she's a whore
But the table's about to turn
I'll bet my fame on it
Cats (21)________ my ideas and put their (22)________ on it
It's aiight though, you can't (23)________ me down
I got to keep on movin'
To all my girls with a man who be tryin' to mack
Do it right back to him and let that be that
You need to let him (24)________ that his (25)________ is wack
And Lil' Kim and Christina (26)________________ got your back
You're just a little boy
Think you're so cute, so coy
You must talk so big to (27)________ up for smaller things
You're (28)________ a little boy
All you do is annoy
You must talk so big to make up for smaller things
CHORUS-repeat 2X
Can't hold us down!
