You just work that, work that, work that girl
Ain't never ashamed what life did to me
Takin’ care of myself, I wanna live long
(Ah, ah, work what you got)
You just work that, work that, work that girl
And ain't a man alive could ever take it from me
(It's gonna be fine, work what you got)
(Work your thing out, out, out)
(Work your thing out, out, out)
From the beautiful queen that you can be becomin’
Let ‘em get mad
It's okay show yourself some love
But God has put his hands on me
(Ah, ah, work what you got)
Don't hold back, you just be yourself
I'm talkin’ about things that I know
That’s why I be myself and I grew to love it
Go on and hold your head high ‘cause you a pretty woman
Don't hold back, you just be yourself
(Ah, ah, work what you got)
I'm talkin’ about things that I know
Don't worry about who's sayin’ what
And they often criticize you for your skin tone
Work your thing out, out, out
That’s why I be myself and I grew to love it
Don't hold back, you just be yourself
Don't hold back, you just be yourself
(Work your thing out, out, out)
Just because the length of your hair ain't long
(It's gonna be fine, work what you got)
Work what you got
(Ah, ah, work what you got)
(It's gonna be fine, work what you got)
Don't hold back, you just be yourself
They gon’ hate anyway, don't you get that?
Work that, work that, work that girl
It's okay show yourself some love
I'm talkin’ about things that I know
Don't sweat girl be yourself
Let ‘em get mad
(Ah, ah, work what you got)
(Ah, ah, work what you got)
Celebratin’ the things that everyone told me would never happen
Doesn't matter if you go along with their plan
They'll never be happy ‘cause they're not happy with themselves
Don't hold back, you just be yourself
Get your runway stride honed and keep it goin’
Work what you got
Wasn't afraid to change ‘cause it was good for me
They'll never be happy ‘cause they're not happy with themselves
(Work you head girl)
I wanna
You can look in my palm and see the storm comin’
Don't worry about who's sayin’ what
Don't worry about who's sayin’ what
You just work that, work that, work that girl
Read the book of my life and see I’ve overcome it
(Work what you got!)
Don't hold back, you just be yourself
Work what you got
Girl, live your life
Follow me, follow me, follow me, I be myself
(Ah, ah, work what you got)
It's okay show yourself some love
Work your thing out, out, out
Feelin’ great because the light's on me
You just work that, work that, work that girl
You just work that, work that, work that girl
They gon’ hate anyway, don't you get that?
Don't hold back, you just be yourself
(Ah, ah, work what you got)

You just work that, work that, work that girl
