[Verse 1]
I came to handle business, I'm lookin' at you boy
I'm thinkin' about the things we can do and explore
I'm wonderin if you figure what my body is gonna say and
Tell me what it do, playa, listen, I ain't playin'

[Pre-Chorus]
So don't bother me with astrology
That is too deep and mental
Me and my girls just came to party
It's that simple
If you need to know, I'm a Virgo
I'm always in my head
That's where you find me
And that's where you wanna be

[Chorus]
I'm just that type of girl
Figured I'd let you know
Lookin' for what I need
Tonight I'ma do it for me
I'm just that type of girl
Freedom to come and go
Dip whenever I please
Tonight I'ma do it for me
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl

[Bridge]
You and your boys are fresh in town
Me and my girls is all up in the house, house, house, and out, so what now?
You and your boys are fresh in town
Me and my girls is all up in the house, house, house, and out, so what now?

[Pre-Chorus]
So don't bother me with astrology
That is too deep and mental
Me and my girls just came to party
It's that simple
If you need to know, I'm a Virgo
I'm always in my head
That's where you find me
And that's where you wanna be

[Chorus]
I'm just that type of girl
Figured I'd let you know
Lookin' for what I need
Tonight I'ma do it for me
I'm just that type of girl
Freedom to come and go
Dip whenever I please
Tonight I'ma do it for me
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl

[Bridge 2]
I got (I got) what makes a woman irresistible
I am (I am) [?] befo'
It will work if you stay in your place, your place

[Chorus]
I'm just that type of girl
Figured I'd let you know
Lookin' for what I need
Tonight I'ma do it for me
I'm just that type of girl
Freedom to come and go
Dip whenever I please
Tonight I'ma do it for me
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl
I'm just that type of girl

[Bridge]
You and your boys are fresh in town
Me and my girls is all up in the house, house, house, and out, so what now?
You and your boys are fresh in town
Me and my girls is all up in the house, house, house, and out, so what now?

Jennifer Hudson first entered the public consciousness as a 22-year old from Chicago trying out for American Idol. Her American Idol tenure ended in 2005, after finishing in seventh place.

Since the show, she’s gone on to have successes as a singer, theater actor, and movie star. Her first big break was her role as Effie in the 2006 film Dreamgirls. She starred alongside Beyoncé and won 29 awards for her performance—including the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2007. She went on to star in numerous films as well as the theater production The Color Purple, based on the novel by Alice Walker.

Hudson released her first album in 2008 entitled Jennifer Hudson. That same year, she suffered a major loss while on tour when her mother, brother, and nephew were killed by her sister’s estranged husband. She released subsequent albums I Remember Me in 2011, and JHUD in 2014.
