Lyrics:
[Spoken intro - LaWanda Page, RuPaul]
Once upon a time, there was a little black girl, in the Brewster Projects of Detroit, Michigan. At fifteen, she was spotted by an Ebony Fashion Fair talent scout and her modeling career took off
You better work.

[Chorus - RuPaul]
You better work
(Cover girl)
Work it, girl
(Give a twirl)
Do your thing on the runway
Work
(Supermodel)
You better work it, girl
(Of the world)
Wet your lips and make love to the camera

[Hook - RuPaul]
Work
Turn to the left
Work
Now turn to the right
Work
Sashay, shante

[Verse 1 - RuPaul]
It don't matter what you wear
They're checking out your savior faire
And it don't matter what you do
Cause everything looks good on you
Supermodel

[Chorus - RuPaul]
You better work
(Cover girl)
Work it, girl
(Give a twirl)
Do your thing on the runway
Work
(Supermodel)
You better work it, girl
(Of the world)
Wet your lips and make love to the camera

[Hook - RuPaul]
Work
Turn to the left
Work
Now turn to the right
Work
Sashay, shante

[Verse 2 - RuPaul]
I see your picture everywhere
A million dollar derriere
And when you walked in to the room
You had everybody's eyes on you, supermodel

[Hook - RuPaul]
Work
Turn to the left
Work
Now turn to the right
Work
Sashay, shante
Work
Turn to the left
Work
Now turn to the right
Work
Sashay, shante

[Outro - RuPaul]
You better work
Work
Work
(Supermodel)
You better work
Work
Work
Work
I have one thing to say:
You better work

RuPaul’s Foxy Lady is a high-gloss, funk-infused pop statement that captures the superstar at the height of her ’90s cultural takeover. Released in 1996 as the follow-up to her breakthrough Supermodel of the World, the album delivered club-ready hits like “Snapshot,” which became a Top 5 smash on the Billboard Dance chart and solidified RuPaul’s status as a dance-floor powerhouse. Foxy Lady blends house, R&B, and glitter-coated pop with Ru’s signature charisma, weaving empowerment, camp, and diva bravado into every hook. The album’s vibrant production—courtesy of Eric Kupper, Richard “Humpty” Vission, and other dance heavyweights—makes it feel like a runway playlist built for strutting and celebrating. Though overlooked by mainstream radio at the time, it became a fan-favorite era, widely embraced in clubs and by LGBTQ+ audiences who saw RuPaul pushing drag into the pop mainstream long before it was common. Today, Foxy Lady stands as a bold, joyfully unapologetic snapshot of RuPaul’s expanding empire—an album that still sparkles with confidence, glamour, and attitude.
