HEATHER HEADLEY LYRICS - Sista Girl

"Sista Girl"



This is for my sisters

And all my sister girls

Um

Yeah

She was 5 foot 9

If she didn't wear shoes

Body like a goddess

Walk by her own rules

Reigned supreme over her ghetto kingdom

Possessed intellectual wisdom

Any man she met wanted a piece of her

Bought her fine things in hopes to creep with her

Talked like 25

Looked like 23

Who could believe the sistas only 14



[Chorus]

Hold On

If You Can

Cross Your Legs

Forget that man

Someday

You'll look back and understand

Sista Girl (sista girl)

Only a child Walkin' around,

Sista girl (sista girl)

Don't let him rock your world

Sista Girl (sista girl)

Do do do do do

Sista Girl (sista girl)

You're Only 14



In retrospect he wasn't really her type

But he was tall with big hands and the sexiest eyes

So she fell for him and in the blink of an eye

He became part of her for the rest of her life

Four months later considering her plight

Belly's gettin' bigger she saw the plus sign

So she she calls him up hoping he'll ease her pain

(ooh) Don't remember her name

Hold On

If You Can

Cross Your Legs

Fire that man

Someday

You'll look back and understand

Sista Girl (sita girl)

Only a child

Walkin' around, sista girl

Don't let 'em rock your world

Sista Girl (sista girl)

Sista Girl (sista girl)

Only 14

Hey mm hey unh unh unh hey

Hummm Momma used to say sweet child

The world is at your door

Don't give it all away

Just look

There's so much of life in store for you

Baby wait and see

Take your time

Feed your mind

Be free
