Just in Case: 80'S LADIES We were three little girls from school One was pretty, one was smart, and one was a borderline fool Oh, she's still good looking That woman hasn't slipped a bit And the smart one used her head She made her fortune And me I cross the border every chance I get Chorus: We were the girls of the 50's Stone rock and rollers in the 60's And more than our names got changed As the 70's slipped on by Now we're 80's ladies There ain't been much these ladies ain't tried We've been educated, we got liberated And that's complicated matters with men Oh we've said I do and we've signed I don't And we've sworn we'd never do that again Oh we've burned our bras and we've burned our dinners And we've burned at candles at both ends And we've got some children who look just like The way we did back then Oh but we're all grown up now All grown up None of us can tell you quite how Repeat Chorus A-My name is Alice, I'm gonna marry Artie We're gonna sell apples and live in Arkansas B-My name is Betty, I'm gonna marry Bobby We're gonna sell beans and live in Brazil C-my name is Connie, I'm gonna marry Charlie We're gonna sell cars and live in California
