“I feel my most confident when I’m not trying too hard,” Scott explains. “I love getting glammed up and all the fancy clothes, but when I feel the most ‘me,’ it’s a lot more laid back – and I think that’s a lot of us. You are your most authentic self in blue jeans with a tequila drink, ya know? As we were writing it, I was like ‘It’s always been my dream to do a song that combines the things I love about Dolly Parton’s ‘9 to 5’ and Shania Twain’s ‘Man! I Feel Like a Woman!’ – two of the most strong, powerful female songs ever,” she goes on. “So it was like ‘How can we do our version of that?’”
“It’s incredible that Charles and Dave, in all their masculinity, are willing to sing right alongside me on this song,” Scott continues. “I think that is another powerful statement. It’s super important for strong, great men to stand beside women and propel them forward. I hope it makes fans feel confident too, it brings them joy and just gets people excited about seeing live music again.”
“We were some of the biggest champions for ‘Like A Lady’ and we’re honored to stand alongside Hillary,” says Dave Haywood. “We’ve had a front row seat to her strength over the years and we love linking arms with her on this song.”
“This song has such a great feel to it,” Charles Kelley adds. “One of the coolest parts of being in a co-ed band is being able to share those different perspectives, so that’s just part of what we get to do.”
“Like A Lady” Lyrics
Boy, I’m not the kinda girl to go and fight for all your attention
Mmm, mmm
I’m not too afraid to call this off and go see what I’ve been missing
Mmm, mmm
Leave the dress at home ’cause it makes me too polite
No more waiting by the phone
I’m stepping out tonight
‘Cause I feel like a lady
Sippin’ on tequila with my Levi’s on
A lady
Singin’ to the music playin’ all night long
Yeah, I’m feeling right, I’m living my life, I do what I like
‘Cause I feel like a lady, a lady
Treat myself to what’s up on the highest shelf
I want it, I get it
Mmm, mmm
I might look like I’m lonely, but I’m only loving every minute
Ooh, baby
Leave the heels at home, ’cause they never do me right
Go out dancing on my own
Man, these heels don’t lie
‘Cause I feel like a lady
Sippin’ on tequila with my Levi’s on
A lady
Singin’ to the music playin’ all night long
Yeah, I’m feeling right, I’m living my life, I do what I like
‘Cause I feel like a lady, a lady
Feel like a lady, a lady, yeah yeah
Might change my hair, and change my mind
Might change your whole damn life
I may break your heart, and not think twice, that’s right
I’m a lady
Sippin’ on tequila with my Levi’s on
A lady
Singin’ to the music playin’ all night long
I’m feeling right, I’m living my life, I do what I like
‘Cause I feel like a lady, a lady
(I feel like, I feel like a lady)
(I feel like, I feel like a lady) I feel like a lady
(I feel like, I feel like a lady) Like a lady
(I feel like) Lady
