A new single from 2012 Voice contestant RaeLynn aims to provide the answer to why God Made Girls, but the lyrics prove to be the opposite of what she calls “girl empowerment”. RaeLynn told Taste of Country: “There’s just something so special about ‘God Made Girls,’ it comes from a girl’s perspective and there’s nothing like that on radio right now.”
She sings; “He needed something soft and loud and sweet and proud/But tough enough to break a heart/Something beautiful and breakable that lights up in the dark/So God made girls.”
I know some people may think she makes a good point, but come on, surely a woman’s purpose in life has to b more than to pretty and hold a man’s hand. What of those God made to be not so pretty, or to serve him and be single all their life?
See the video and more of the reasons RaeLynn thinks God Made Girls below, and tell me what you think….
to wear a pretty skirt
to be the one to flirt to flirt
to hold his hand
to make him get dressed up
to give him a reason wash that truck
to teach him how to dance
to be the one to cry
to let him drive
to give him a reason to hold that course
to put up a fight (????)
to make him wait on Saturday night to walk downstairs and blow his mind
to drag his butt to church
to hold him when he hurts
