It gets under my skin, deep in my bones I've got a tainted soul

I keep washin' my hands try to come clean

But the soaps like a brick of black coal

And I try, I try I try to be good and pretty

But a good girl is just something I wasn't meant to be

It ain't my fault that my soul was born dirty

I just can't help it, I'm just a dirty girl

I spent all my dirty money livin' in this dirty world

There's this black cloud that keeps on following me around

And the rain just keeps on comin' down oh Lord,

ya hear me, when I say that I just can't be no other way

And I try, so hard, I try to break free

But I hurt myself every single time

So I guess it's just a part of me

It ain't my fault that my soul was born dirty

I just can't help it I'm just a dirty girl

I spent all my dirty money livin' in this dirty world

La la da da da da da da da la da da da da da da da

I just can't help it

I'm just a dirty girl

I spent all my dirty money livin in this dirty world

I got two flat tires and I don't got a spare

I spent my last damn fifty-cent on second hand underwear

This life style is a hazard and I don't know what to do

But I'd rather be broke down fucked up and livin' in a pigsty

Than givin' in and runnin' back to you

I just can't help it I'm just a dirty girl

I spent all my dirty money livin' in this dirty world
