"This one's for the girls" - Martina McBride


This one's for all you girls about thirteen
High school can be so rough, can be so mean
Hold onto, on to your innocence
Stand your ground when everyone's giving in

This one's for the girls

This is for all you girls about twenty-five
In a little apartment, just trying to get by
Living on, on dreams and spaghetti-o's
Wondering where you life is gonna go

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls

This is for all you girls about forty-two
Tossing pennies into the Fountain of Youth
Every laugh, laugh line on your face
Made you who you are today

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls

Yeah, we're all the same inside (same inside)
From 1 to 99

This one's for the girls
Who've ever had a broken heart
Who've wished upon a shooting star
You're beautiful the way you are
This one's for the girls
Who love without holding back
Who dream with everything they have
All around the world
This one's for the girls
Yeah, this one's for the girls


Del álbum "Martina" (2003)

*******

La letra es muy sencilla, quizá no dice grandes cosas ni contiene un mensaje profundo, pero me gusta para un día como hoy que ha sido señalado como el Día Internacional de la Mujer. Además, Martina McBride es una cantante que me gusta mucho desde que la descubrí en aquel programa especial que el canal CTM le dedicó a otra grande como Pat Benatar (aquí un video con tremendo dueto y tremenda canción, jejeje). Además, participó en aquel álbum navideño manufacturado con duetos entre conocidas cantantes country y el grandioso Elvis Presley. La versión de Blue Christmas es una de las mejores, igual que el video.

Va por ustedes, queridas congéneres.
