Lyrics
[verse]
If you wanna walk beside me, better learn to keep the pace
I ain't looking for a shadow, I'm looking for a face
That can handle when I'm feisty, that can handle when I'm bold
'Cause I ain't changing colors just to fit some old-school mold
[chorus]
Any man of mine better proud of who I am
Better dance when I say dance and clap when I say clap, ma'am
Better tell me that I'm pretty even with my hair a mess
Any man of mine's gonna love me, nothing less
[verse]
I don't need somebody telling me to quiet down my laugh
I don't need a man who's scared to walk my crooked path
I want a partner, not a shadow standing in the back
Someone who can match my fire, someone with the knack
[chorus]
Any man of mine better proud of who I am
Better dance when I say dance and clap when I say clap, ma'am
Better tell me that I'm pretty even with my hair a mess
Any man of mine's gonna love me, nothing less
[bridge]
So if you're looking for a girl who folds to fit the frame
Better keep on walking, you're looking for the wrong name
I know exactly what I want and I ain't settling twice
Any man of mine's gonna treat this heart just right
[chorus]
Any man of mine better proud of who I am
Better dance when I say dance and clap when I say clap, ma'am
Better tell me that I'm pretty even with my hair a mess
Any man of mine's gonna love me, nothing less
