Attitude

Johnny moved to this big town to be who he could be

But the tough guys on the sidewalk, they don't want him to be free

But he knows he has the power, he knows someday they'll be dead

They can't get him to turn around, he keeps walking straight ahead

'Cause he's got attitude and it will get him through

And he's got attitude and it will see him through

Backstage Mary, she grew up with nothing but hunger in her purse

All the fancy ladies tell her, "You'll only go from bad to worse"

But she just keeps on believing, she tells them she's doing fine

They get rich while she gets smart, she's feeling stronger all the time

'Cause she's got attitude and it will get her through

And she's got attitude and it will see her through

Everybody knows who they are, they need no address

They make sure things are going their way and the country's in a mess

As they buy that land, start that war, keep those people poor

They don't care if people aren't gonna take it anymore

And they've got attitude and it will get them through

And they've got attitude and it will see them through

And they've got attitude and it will get them through

And they've got attitude and it will see them through
