High Heeled Boots

 

I'm gonna put on my high heeled boots

I'm gonna paint my nails and colour my roots

I don't care what you say 

you won't stand in my way

I'm a woman, I'll dress up today

 

I'm gonna pick up the phone call in sick

I'm gonna pack my bags, put on some lipstick

I'm gonna book me a flight

Hey, I know it ain't right

I've got duties and money is tight

 

But when they're piling up like a mountain

the things you have to do

and you are ready to burst like a fountain

into tears, 'cause it's true

that the place you are living

the jobs that you do

have nothing to do with you

 

I'm gonna go to a city or town

and the place gotta vibrate

'cause I ain't lying down

Full of people and cars

Full of glitter and stars

Full of music and laughters and bars

 

'Cause when they're piling up like a mountain

the things you have to do

and you are ready to burst like a fountain

into tears, 'cause it's true

that the place you are living

the jobs that you do

have nothing to do with you

 

You gotta steal those moments

those precious little moments to yourself

It ain't crime to steal those moments

those precious little moments to yourself

 

and when they're piling up like a mountain

the things you have to do

and you are ready to burst like a fountain

into tears 'cause it's true

that the place you are living

the jobs that you do

have nothing to do with you

 

When I return it will be with a smile

'cause I will bring back some 

treasures to last me a while

It's the memories you know, from the places I go

Keep on charging 'till the next time I'm low

Keep on charging 'till the next time I'm low
