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,
Renee

what I lack in the ability to stay on tune I make up for in enthusiasm.

Thanks for the comment, and hugs.
