[Verse 1] See that girl over there Scuffed boots, chipped red nails Old coat, new blue hair Laugh lines, heartbreak tales Can’t keep her down She’s been pushed around She’s been hurt so deep She’s been out on the street She’s been left to cry alone On a curb by a payphone glow But she wipes her eyes And she stands, yeah she stands [Pre-Chorus] See that girl right there Yeah, the one who stares fate down See that girl right there Watch her flip this whole damn town (hey!) [Chorus] Can’t keep her down She’s a phoenix making fire from the ground See that girl over there, watch her turn it around She always picks herself up when the world says “stay down” Can’t keep a good girl down Can’t keep a good girl down (oh yeah) She’s a phoenix making fire from the ground Can’t keep a good girl down [Verse 2] Secondhand dreams in a plastic bag Name stitched crooked on a denim tag Every “no” just feeds her drive Every fall just proves she’s alive See that girl right there Boot on the gas, no fear See that girl right there Laugh so loud it melts your tears (hey!) [Chorus] Can’t keep her down She’s a phoenix making fire from the ground See that girl over there, watch her turn it around She always picks herself up when the world says “stay down” Can’t keep a good girl down Can’t keep a good girl down (woah) She’s a phoenix making fire from the ground Can’t keep a good girl down [Bridge] She’s been bruised She’s been burned But every scar Is a page she turned See that girl, right there Hands up in the air Singing out, singing proud “I’m still here, say it loud” [Chorus] Can’t keep her down She’s a phoenix making fire from the ground See that girl over there, watch her turn it around She always picks herself up when the world says “stay down” Can’t keep a good girl down Can’t keep a good girl down (hey!) She’s a phoenix making fire from the ground Can’t keep a good girl down
