The first thing I did
when you said Goodbye
Was sit myself down
and have a real good cry
The next thing I did was
put my red dress on
And go downtown dancin'
till the break of dawn
A girl's gotta do
what a girl's gotta do
And now I've gotta get
to gettin' over you
Too bad I gotta do
it with someone new
But a girl's gotta do
what a girl's gotta do
Fancy meetin' you
at our stompin' ground
Sorry if you caught
me paintin' the town
Guess I shoulda stayed
home with your memory
Baby don't take it personally
A girl's gotta do
what a girl's gotta do
And now I've gotta get
to gettin' over you
Too bad I gotta do
it with someone new
But a girl's gotta do
what a girl's gotta do
Give me a call
some time real soon
And remind me to remember
to forget about you oh yeah
A girl's gotta do
what a girl's gotta do
And now I've gotta get
to gettin' over you
Too bad I gotta do
it with someone new
But a girl's gotta do
what a girl's gotta do
A girl's gotta do it
Yeah a girl's gotta do it
Too bad I gotta do it
Too bad I gotta do it
with someone new
But a girl's gotta do
what a girl's gotta do
