Lyrics:
(rick bowles/robert byrne)The first thing I did when you said goodbyeWas sit myself down and have a real good cryThe next thing I did was put my red dress onAnd go downtown dancing ?'till the break of dawnA girl?'s gotta do what a girl?'s gotta doAnd now I gotta get to gettin?' over youToo bad I gotta do it, baby, someone newBut a girl?'s gotta do what a girl?'s gotta doFancy meeting you at our stomping groundSorry if you caught me painting the townGuess I shoulda stayed home with your memoryBaby don?'t take it personallyA girl?'s gotta do what a girl?'s gotta doAnd now I gotta get to gettin?' over youToo bad I gotta do it, baby, someone newBut a girl?'s gotta do what a girl?'s gotta doGive me a call some time real soonAnd remind me to remember to forget about you, oh yeah!A girl?'s gotta do what a girl?'s gotta doAnd now I gotta get to gettin?' over youToo bad I gotta do it with someone newBut a girl?'s gotta do what a girl?'s gotta doA girl?'s gotta do itYeah, a girl?'s gotta do itToo bad I gotta do it with someone newToo bad I gotta do it with someone newBut a girl?'s gotta do what a girl?'s gotta do
