Write what you know and let your feelings show
Be who you are and give all that you've got
It's easy and as hard as this
Though you try to resist
It's just the way of this world
Let it be your oyster, your pearl
Make you an honest girl
Let it be your oyster, your pearl
Be just where you are and content with your lot
Oh, but try to look far as you wish on a star
It's easy and as hard as this
You must try to persist
It's just the way of this world
Let it be your oyster, your pearl
Make you an honest girl
Let it be your oyster, your pearl
