I ain't lookin' like nobody's fool
Save it for somebody else
And I ain't makin' any desperate move
Till I'm satisfied myself

I ain't waitin' for no invitation
I just wanna walk on through
I never needed anybody
And like my daddy said

I wasn't born with a silver spoon, ooh, ooh
Nowhere to hide in a crowded room, ooh, ooh
I see the attitude that's in your eyes

I got no reason to apologize
'Cause what's so special
'Bout a girl like you
With a silver spoon?

In a city where the buildings rise
I was just another face
But mama told me when somebody dies
No one else can take your place
I never needed anybody
And like my daddy said

I wasn't born with a silver spoon, ooh, ooh
Nowhere to hide in a crowded room, ooh, ooh
I see the attitude that's in your eyes

I got no reason to apologize
'Cause I got something
For a girl like you
With a silver spoon

I always knew I'd be somebody
I kept it in my head
I never needed anybody
And like my daddy said

I wasn't born with a silver spoon, ooh, ooh
Nowhere to hide in a crowded room, ooh, ooh
I see the attitude that's in your eyes

I got no reason to apologize
'Cause what's so special
'Bout a girl like you
Girl like you, girl like you
With a silver spoon?
