It's not fair
For the world to pass me by
And I stand cautiously aside
As though I'm shy
They say it's right for a girl
To stay in line
And keep her name from
Dragging through the grapevine
When a boy can live any life
Run around
There is nothing he can do
That will keep him down
No
It's not fair
Now if justice plays
Such an important role
In a girl's rights
Who has lots of soul
Then the time will come
When this rule will lag
Gving me a chance
To come out of my bag
No
It's not fair
It's not fair
If I can't go where I wanna go
It's not fair
If I can't do what I wanna do
Guys and gals all around me
They all sound me
The tell me what's mine is mine
If I wanna share it
Then alright fine
It's not fair
And I ain't gonna by this mess
About a good girl
I understand (?)
That every girl wants pride
But this gap between good and bad
Is very wide
Just as sure as God made
Boy to love girl
Makes me know I'm to get
Some part of this world
No
It's not fair
It's not fair
It's not fair
It's not fair
And I ain't gonna by this mess
About a good girl
It's not fair
If I can't go where I wanna go
It's not fair
If I can't do what I wanna do
Guys and gals all around me
They all sound me
The tell me what's mine is mine
If I wanna share it
Then alright fine
It's not fair
If I can't go where I wanna go
It's not fair
If I can't do what I wanna do
