Intro: E – A – E – B
Verse 1:
It was a strange place and a tender age; I was just a babe in school
Saw them roll their eyes at me every time that I thought that I was cool
Well uh God knows I was no chosen one; that just wasn’t my prime
Yeah it’s just matter of time, honey, it’s just a matter of time
Chorus:
And I will work this body I will burn this flame
Oh in the dead of night, and in the pouring rain
Yeah, I’m a work-a-holic and I swear, I swear
Yeah, one day I will beat you fair and square
Tag:
Show me what you got
Work this body on the floor
Who do you think you are
C?mon meet me on the court
Refrain: (le French)
Que ferais-tu?
Putain, je ne sais pas!
Verse 2:
It ain’t no matter of “if”, honey, it’s just a matter of ?when”
Ah, some Sunday when it’s my face in the newspaper again
All the rag magazines, black limousines, they’ll be getting in line
Yeah it’s just matter of time, honey, it’s just a matter of time
Chorus:
And I will work this body I will burn this flame
Oh in the dead of night, and in the pouring rain
Yeah, I’m a work-a-holic and I swear, I swear
Yeah, one day I will beat you fair and square
Tag:
Show me what you got
Work this body on the floor
Who do you think you are
C?mon meet me on the court
Refrain: (le French)
Que ferais-tu?
Putain, je ne sais pas!
Ne viens pas pleurer…
Vers moi?
Guitar Solo/Instrumental: E – A – E – B
Chorus: (x2)
And I will work this body I will burn this flame
