Don't mess around with this smooth operator
She's gonna get you sooner or later
Take heed of her curly blonde hair
Blue eyes and her devil-may-care stare

She's hanging on with everything she's got
She's hanging on with everything she's got
She's hanging on with everything she's got
Hangin on hangin on hangin on

She's just a stubborn girl
She's just a stubborn girl
She's such a stubborn girl

Don't try to talk don't try to persuade her
'Cause she's a girl used to getting her way here
She's got this thing like a chip on her shoulder
She'll stand her ground 'til heaven freezes over

*She's hanging on with everything she's got
She's hanging on with everything she's got
She's hanging on with everything she's got
Hangin on hangin on hangin on

She's just a stubborn girl
She's just a stubborn girl
She's such a stubborn girl
Don't mess around with this mean alligator
She's gonna bite you sooner or later
You'd best beware of her pearly white teeth
She smiles hard and they sink in so deep

Repeat *
