Jess is a girl (Thanks to Renee M for the edit)
this is based on the old song "Jessie's girl", a version of which can be found here:

Jess is my name,
yeah, they said I've been a boy all my life,
But today something changed
that ain't hard to define.
Now they know I am a girl and that I was all the time.
I was watching girls with my eyes;
And I was envying their bodies,
couldn’t hold it.
And I was praying to my God
every single night.
But now, they know that Jess is a girl,
they know that Jess is a girl.
Finally came out as a woman - like that.
I got tired of the charade
I finally knew it was time,
I had to change.
I used to feel so dirty wanting to be cute,
wish that I had come out sooner, but that feeling's kinda moot.
I kept watching girls with my eyes,
And I was envying their clothes and couldn’t stop it.
And I was praying to my God every single night.
But now, they know Jess is a girl
They know that Jess is a girl.
Finally came out as a woman - like that.
Know that Jess is a girl,
they know that Jess is a girl.
Came right out as a woman,
as a woman - like that.
And I looked in the mirror all the time,
hating the boy I would see instead of me.
I would struggle and would cry all the time,
ain't it finally time for me to be me?
So I,
Came out as a woman - just like that,
out as a woman - just like that.
Now they all know Jess is a girl,
they know that Jess is a girl.
Came out as a woman - as a woman - like that.
Yes, Jess is a girl,
no doubt that Jess is a girl,
you’ll see that Jess is a girl

Great!
Your song is excellent, Dorothy. The words were just right; I can picture you singing it and knowing it in your heart!
Thing is.... it's kind of a silent picture cuz I don't know what your voice sounds like. ;-)
YOU GO, GIRL!!! go and go and go and keep going till you get there and keep going after that!
Hugs and Bright Blessings,

trust me, you dont want to hear me sing.
what I lack in the ability to stay on tune I make up for in enthusiasm.
Thanks for the comment, and hugs.
