Ne-Yo – Miss Independent lyrics
Ooh
It's something about
Just something about
The way she moved
I can't figure it out
There's something
About her
(About her)
Say ooh
There's something
About kinda women
That want you
But don't need you
Hey
I can't figure it out
There's something
About her
Cuz she walk like a boss
Talk like a boss
Manicured nails
Just sent
The pedicure off
She's fly effortlessly
Cuz she move like a boss
Do what a boss
Do
She got me thinking
About getting involved
That's the kinda girl
I need

She got her own thing
That's why I love her

Miss independent
Won't you come
And spend a little time
She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss independent
Ooh
The way you shine
Miss independent

Hey, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeahhh, mmm
Ooh
There's something
About kinda woman
That can do
It for herself
I look at her
And it makes me proud
There's something
About her
There something
Ooh
So s***
About the kinda women
That don't even
Need my help
She says she got it
She got it
No doubt
There's something
About her
Cuz she work
Like the boss
Play like the boss
Car and a crib
She about
To pay em both off
And her bills
Are paid on time
She made for a boss
Soley a boss
Anything less
She's telling em
To get lost
That's the girl
That on my mind

She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss independent
Won't you come
And spend
A little time
She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss independent
Ooh
The way you shine
Miss independent

Yeah, yeahhh

Her favorite thing
Is to say
Don't worry I got it
And everything she got
Best believe
She bought it
She gon steal my heart
Ain't no doubt about it
Girl
Your everything I need
Said your everything
I need

She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss independent
Wont you come
And spend a little time
She got her own thing
That's why I love her
Miss independent
Ooh the way you shine
Miss independent
That's why I love her

    This song is about the type of girl that he likes. He is saying that the fact that she is not helpless or stuck up like other girls makes him want her. He likes the fact that she doesn't have to depend on a guy she can take care of herself!
    Like me!
    I believe that even if you are not rich everlasting every woman must have some means of supporting herself to save for the day (if it should come) when her man decides "I've had enough". If you have this means for yourself then you don't even have to slow down to drop his off. You can just shift your car into gear and drive off into the sunset.

    I like the song so much! And I totally get what he is saying. But he just saying he loves her for what she can do for herself finacially. So I'm going to do a girl version and it will be I-N-Dependent! So yall be on the look out on YouTube for it. And I'm pretty sure all my ladies will feel me on this. But the song is fly!

    This song I believe describes that neyo and other "classy guys" dig a girl who is really independent because they know that she'll love them for them and who they are because she already has her own money and can provide completely for herself regardless if a man is or not in her life so, basically she'll love them for them and thus, they want to give the world to her because she's earned it- to the independent ladies!

    To: yuciefan that is not what this song means not even close next time think before you write something down.
    The True Meaning: This song by Ne-Yo means the true beauty of an independent woman someone who can do for them self and not worry about the next person helping them out all the time. The sexiness in a powerful woman that can take charge of any situation; that is looking to better herself as well as the people around her.
    P. S. I love me some Ne-Yo so I should know & his songs are so inspirational.

    Got my car, got my crib, am my own boss as I work for myself, anything less wouldn't work, pay my own bills on time, house and car just about paid for, I often pick up the tab, have regular manis and pedis, keep fit, dress well, am well educated and hold a good conversation, am very confident and show it by the way I walk. I may want a guy for fun, but really I don't need him! Am totally independent. Yeh well, no stress for the guy cus no grief, self maintained, a trophy by any standards on his arm. No wonder he's in love! I can relate well to this song. Guys beware that's more of us independent women out there than you'd like to think, and if you think you have any hope in hell, well ur dead wrong. We didn't build up our little empires to support you!

    Bout the woman who can stand alone. Even without man on her side. She can survive and leave life to the fullest. I think man with this kind of woman will get intimated. Look the song is begging to spend a little time. Coz woman like this is choosy and hard to please. Have an high standard on looking for a man. But girl. I wanted to like this hehehe.
