She don't (F#) have to fake it
That girl was born to shake it
(E) Stompin' on the hardwood (B) floor
Like she's gonna (F#) break it

Well there's (C#) only one way to get next to her
(No Chord) I can't dance, but I'm willin' to learn
Repeat Intro
I'm a (F#) roper and rider
I'm a lover and a fighter
