[Verse 1]
Confidently, I did the thing a woman like me should never do
I stepped on a scale and thought "What the hell?"
'Cause, honey, that scale was mighty rude
So I've gained a little weight, mama's hair's a little gray
And my strength just ain't the same
But believe me when I say
[Chorus]
I'd fight a bear underwater for my baby
Bring on a lion, I'm not frightened, they can't take me
I'd tear the stripes off any tiger
You just call me, and I swear
I'm right there and I'm not scared
Of lions and tigers and bears
[Verse 2]
A wolf or a fox, please
A big jabberwocky
You just gotta knock on your mama's door
I'll fight through the fire
But if there's a spider, well, honey
That's what your friends are for
I know sometimes we don't agree
But I'm always on your team
And if somebody ever get mean
If they try to take a swing
I'm gon' hit that gangster lean
Somebody hold my earrings
Let me get that Vaseline
'Cause they gon have to go through me
[Chorus]
I'd fight the real Loch Ness monster for my baby
I'd slay the dragon and I'll drag 'em 'cause I'm crazy
I'd scare the stripes off any [?]
Call me, and I swear
I'm right there and I'm not scared
Of lions and tigers and bears
