God Bless The Girl Lyrics

Jackie loves her work
& her work is love
For there is no other
She says "God has given me a job"
Jackie loves her work
There is no other

Jackie's aiming for the stars
But landing on the clouds
There is no other
Sitting in her corner
Too afraid to run away
Like a slave without chains

The wonder turns to danger, spring turns to winter
God bless the girl
But I will treasure, treasure every single moment
God bless the girl
Fire turns to water, light becomes darkness
God bless the girl
& I don't wanna hurt you, just wanna have some fun
God bless the girl
God bless the girl
Yeah, I don't wanna hurt you, just wanna have some fun
God bless the girl

You don't need another friend
You just need a reason
There is no other
Jackie loves her work
& her work is love
For there is no other

The wonder turns to danger, spring turns to winter
God bless the girl
But I will always treasure, treasure every single moment
God bless the girl
Fire turns to water & light becomes darkness
God bless the girl
I don't wanna hurt you, just wanna have some fun
God bless the girl
God bless the girl
God bless the girl
I don't wanna hurt you, just wanna have some fun
God bless the girl
The years pass so swiftly
God bless the girl
Years pass so swiftly
God bless the girl

Jackie loves her work
& her work is love
For there is no other
She says "God has given me a job"
Jackie loves her work
There is no other

Jackie's aiming for the stars
But landing on the clouds
There is no other
Sitting in her corner
Too afraid to run away
Like a slave without chains

You don't need another friend
You just need a reason
There is no other
Jackie loves her work
& her work is love
For there is no other

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
