Powerful Women - Pitbull ft. Dolly Parton

(Who runs this? Who runs this?)

It's Mr. Worldwide

(Who runs this? Who runs this?)

With the one and only Dolly Parton

(Who runs this? Who runs this?)

Well, hey

And this is dedicated to (Who runs this?)

All my powerful women working nine to five

Two, three jobs just to survive

All my powerful women, no man at home

Raisin' all the kids alone

All my powerful women, y'all deserve a throne

Keep your head up and stay strong

All my powerful women, no matter what

Never give up (Ayo)

I remember workin' hard with my mom, you name it, she did it

You name it, she sewed it (Yeah), you name it, she cleaned it (Yeah)

You name it, she owed it (Yeah), she had to provide (Yeah)

We had to survive, so you name it, she stole it, ha (Woo)

Our whole life was layaway

Pay, pay, pay, but the bills never went away (Pay, pay, pay)

Put your hands to the sky

This goes out to the women working hard nine to five

Workin' nine to five (Nine to five), what a way to make a livin' (Yeah)

Barely gettin' by (Get it, girl), it's all takin' and no givin' (Haha)

They just use your mind and they never give you credit

It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

Nine to five (nine to five), for service and devotion

You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion

Want to move ahead, the boss won't seem to let me

I swear sometimes that man is out to get me

Break it down (Ooh)

Here's to your mama and here's to mine

Take it, Dolly

Dale

Haha

Mama worked hard her entire life

She had twelve kids at thirty-five (Woo)

Working 24/7, 365

Working five to nine and nine to five

They let you dream just to watch 'em shatter

You're just a step on the boss man's ladder

You got dreams he'll never take away (Never take away)

You're all in the same boat with the luck of your friends

Waiting for the day your ship will come in

Tide's gonna turn and it's all gonna roll you away

Workin' nine to five (Nine to five), what a way to make a livin'

Barely gettin' by (I'm gettin by), it's all takin' and no givin'

They just use your mind (They use your mind) and they never give you credit

It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it

Nine to five, for service and devotion (That's just what I want)

You would think that I would deserve a fair promotion

Want to move ahead, but the boss won't seem to let me

I swear sometimes that man is out to get me (He's out to get me)

Break it down (Ooh)

Here's to Jane and Lilly and the girls that fight

For equal pay, equal rights

Now, some of us are pitbulls too

We appreciate the things you do

Thanks again for shinin' light

On the women that work from nine to five

It's my pleasure

Dale
