Purple lips, sad face, going on a stupid date

"Give him a chance", her father would say

But she wouldn't want him, no matter the day

Play nice, dress up, don't forget your makeup

You really should impress him, once you take your medicine

Ooh, daddy always had his ideas of being happy

Marry a rich boy, be a rich girl

Buy a big house on top of the world, oh

You'll be a princess, you'll be a queen

But her and her daddy, they never agree, oh

17, it's getting late, so listen to me and do as I say

Baby, you're not gonna make it on your own

Stand tall, suck in, laugh to show you're into him

I heard he's got a million, so be a lady, not a friend

Ooh, daddy always had his ideas of being happy

Marry a rich boy, be a rich girl

Buy a big house on top of the world, oh

You'll be a princess, you'll be a queen

But her and her daddy, they never agree, oh

Marry a rich boy, you'll need the money

So maybe one day, you'll be worth something, honey, oh

Marry a rich boy

Can't you see? He's what you need to live in his society

It's only the reality, baby

Marry a rich boy, be a rich girl

Buy a big house on top of the world, oh

You'll be a princess, you'll be a queen

But her and her daddy, they never agree, oh

Marry a rich boy, you'll need the money

So maybe one day, you'll be worth something, honey, oh

Marry a rich boy
