Nellie Bly Lyrics

Nellie Bly, Nellie Bly, the world could be yours
If you try, if you try
Nellie Bly was just a girl, born into world
But little girls barely matter
See even women couldnt vote, the job just left them broke
So enclosed and batter
Well Nellie didnt think it was right
She took up a pen to fight for womens rights
And she told the whole world, what its all about
Nellie Bly, Nellie Bly, the world could be yours

If you try, if you try
Nellie Bly, Nellie Bly, the world could be yours
If you try, if you try
Nellie Bly, she was fly, like a private eye
She went undercover
Until the womens meant award
See her pen was like a sword
She played it sick to be among the others
She stayed in there for 10 whole days and nights
And then she told the whole world, what its all about
Nellie Bly, Nellie Bly, the world could be yours
If you try, if you try
Nellie Bly, Nellie Bly, the world could be yours
If you try, if you try
Nellie Bly was just a girl, in a race around the world
Taking trains and ships on steam power
She sailed the China sea with her little pet monkey
Beating kings and getting flowers
Maybe at Hong Kong, Singaporeshe was on American shores
Telling the whole wide world, what its all about
Nellie Bly, Nellie Bly, the world could be yours
If you try, if you try
Nellie Bly, Nellie Bly, the world could be yours
If you try, if you try.
