GIRL GONE RIGHT
By LQPickens, Marie Siemens & Clint Clarkson
V1:
Just the other night, talkin’ to the moon
Sitting on her window seat in the heat of June
Looking for an answer through shadows of blue
It’s a test of faith to hold on to her values
PC:
Must she give up her innocence in the name of fun?
Pressure to grow up and fit in is a hard one but…
C:
She’s a girl...gone right
Thinks before she speaks
She's soft; she's not weak
Not always easy to stand and be strong
She doesn’t want to give in; just to go along
She's a girl...gone right
V2:
Sometimes she feels so all alone
Standing up for reasons all her own
Her island of sanity in a sea of adversity
She holds on to her beliefs and the courage to see
PC2:
It’s okay turning right when the others turn left
Take a different road without regret
C:
She’s a girl...gone right
Thinks before she speaks
She’s soft; but she’s not weak
Not always easy to stand and be strong
She doesn’t want to give in and just go along
Cause she's a girl...gone right
B:
She don’t need to be part of an in-crowd
And she hopes in time her pure heart will win out
C:
Cause she’s a girl...gone right
Thinks before she speaks
She's soft; she’s not weak
It’s her heart not conformity she seeks
She doesn’t want to give in and just go along
She’s a girl…gone right
[she's not going wrong; she's a girl gone right]

‘GIRL GONE RIGHT’ Backstory:
This song is about times in a young girl’s life [ex. tweenhood, teenhood, beginning adulthood etc.]
When she must decide how she is going to turn out and what path she takes in her life.
Whether she takes the easy way [the wrong turn] or the hard way [the right turn]
to direct her way she lives. It’s about being a ‘good girl’ and doing the right things.
