Gerry Rafferty Lyrics

"The Girl's Got No Confidence" lyrics


She's got the cool look, she's got the money manShe's got the diamonds, she's even got the suntanBut she's a bright girl, she's got a law degreeShe pioneered the introduction of the CD.
When she was young she read the Gurdjieff booksThe wisdom blew her awayShe's got the money, got good looksBut the girl's got no confidenceNo the girl girl girl sweet girlThe girl's got no confidence.
She went to Berkley, did primal therapyShe wrote the music for a series on the TVShe studied Rumi and Ibn'ArabiShe meditated every summer in a teepee.
But no religion's gonna tie her downShe loves her beautiful clothesShe's sittin' pretty livin' way up townBut the girl, the girl's got no confidenceNo the girl girl girl sweet girlThe girl's got no confidence.
Little by little she got heavy round the middleShe wore a silk kimono when the sun went downShe wrote to her mother and she took another loverShe gets a little lonely when the sun goes down.
She's got the cool look, she's got the money manShe's got the diamonds, she's even got the suntanBut she's a bright girl, she's got a law degreeShe pioneered the introduction of the CD.
When she was young she read the Gurdjieff booksThe wisdom blew her awayShe's got the money, she's got good looksBut the girl, the girl's got no confidenceNo the girl, the girl's got no confidenceNo the girl girl girl sweet girlThe girl's got no confidenceNo the girl girl girl sweet girlThe girl's got no confidence.
