Well, you can ask me about the things you think I want, just ask me
I've got expensive things, even diamond rings by the basket
Oh, I've got it together, yes I have
And any time you think you can make me blink, just try me
Because I've got it bad and I'm so glad
It keeps me going strong, I'm getting stronger
I am a self-made woman, I've got it together, yes I have
Yeah, yeah, I've got my head in the air
And I don't care if I show it, no, no
I'm strictly continental, yes I am
I started from the ghetto, I thought I'd better let you know it
Cause there's a soul-stirring system for the soul-seeking sister
I got it, I show it, I know it
Oh, I can't blow it
Yeah, I've got all kinds of furs by the dozen
I don't need no hand-off cousin
Upside down and inside out, I'll concede it
Upside down and inside out, I will concede it
I'll repeat it
Oh, I've got it together, yes I have
I've made a resolution to keep my constitution
It's no illusion
Because I've got it bad
And I'm so glad
It keeps me going strong, I'm getting stronger
Oh, I'm strictly continental, yes I am
Oh, I'm strictly continental, yes I am
I've got it together, yes I have
I've got it together, yes I have
