Lions and Tigers and Bears

Confidently, I did the thing a woman like me should never do
I stepped on a scale and thought "What the hell?"
'Cause, honey, that scale was mighty rude
So I've gained a little weight, mama's hair's a little gray
And my strength just ain't the same
But believe me when I say

I'd fight a bear underwater for my baby
Bring on a lion, I'm not frightened, they can't take me
I'd tear the stripes off any tiger
You just call me, and I swear
I'm right there and I'm not scared
Of lions and tigers and bears

A wolf or a fox, please
A big jabberwocky
You just gotta knock on your mama's door
I'll fight through the fire
But if there's a spider, well, honey
That's what your friends are for
I know sometimes we don't agree
But I'm always on your team
And if somebody ever get mean
If they try to take a swing
I'm gon' hit that gangster lean
Somebody hold my earrings
Let me get that Vaseline
'Cause they gon have to go through me

I'd fight the real Loch Ness monster for my baby
I'd slay the dragon and I'll drag 'em 'cause I'm crazy
I'd scare the stripes off any
Call me, and I swear
I'm right there and I'm not scared
Of lions and tigers and bears
