Mini-critique N°207

Paroles :

Hey girl, can you hear me?

Are you holding out your heart?

Hey girl, do you feel me?

Sometimes I go too far

Hey girl, it ain't easy

I know it's pulling me apart

But darlin', don't you leave me

Baby, don't you leave me

Hey girl, hey girl

We can make it easy if we lift each other

Hey girl, hey girl

We don't need to keep on one-in' up another

Hey girl, hey girl

Hey girl, hey girl

If you lose your way

Just know that I got you

Just know that I got you

Lady is it lonely?

I been callin' out your name

Tell me that you need me

'Cause I need you just the same

Everyday a heartache

I'm just tryin' to keep it sane

But I know you believe me

Baby don't you leave me

Hey girl, hey girl

We can make it easy if we lift each other

Hey girl, hey girl

We don't need to keep on one-in' up another

Hey girl, hey girl

Hey girl, hey girl

If you lose your way

Just know that I got you

Help me hold my hair back

Walk me home 'cause I can't find a cab

And we dance down The Bowery

Held hands like we were 17 again

And then it's 4 AM

The sun is creepin' up again

Don't you leave me

Oh, darling don't you leave me

Hey girl, hey girl

We can make it easy if we lift each other

Hey girl, hey girl

We don't need to keep on one-in' up another

Hey girl, hey girl

Hey girl, hey girl

If you lose your way

Just know that I got you

Just know that

Just know that I got you

Just know that

Just know that

Just know that

Help me hold my hair back

Walk me home 'cause I can't find a cab

And we dance down The Bowery

Held hands like we were 17 again

Critique :

La structure de "Hey Girl" est unique dans le répertoire de Gaga : Welch et Gaga échangent leurs répliques l'une après l'autre. Le duo répond aux critiques qui opposent les femmes qui réussissent, promouvant l'idée qu'en se soutenant mutuellement, les femmes peuvent lutter contre la stigmatisation sexiste.
