She's got a face that shows that she knows she's heard every line
Tenderly she talks on the phone
There's a way to walk that says stay away
And a time to 'round the long way
A girl in trouble is a temporary thing
A girl in trouble is a temporary thing
There's a time when every girl learns to use her head
Tears will saved 'til they're better spent
There's no time for her to be afraid
So instead, she takes care of her business, keeps a cool head
A girl in trouble is a temporary thing
A girl in trouble is a temporary thing
