You used to call me baby
It always felt so right
But little girls can grow up faster
Than the speed of light
I'm another lady
Under this disguise
Sophisticated woman
Standing right before your eyes
More than anything in the whole world
I want to be an independent girl
Hope you understand me
Breakin' all the rules
But I just want much more from life
Than little girls can choose
I don't have every answer
To the problems of the world
But I can't help resolve them
If I'm just your little girl
More than anything in the whole world
I want to be an independent girl
Wanna move through the days like a gentle breeze
While I'm feelin' so free
Gonna get what I want independently
Come and go as I please
You know I can't wait any longer
Yeah and I'm feeling much stronger
More than anything in the whole world
Want to be an independent girl
More than anything in the whole world
Want to be an independent girl
