Woman

Lyrics

You gotta be fortunate
 You gotta be lucky now
 I was just sitting here
 Thinking good and bad
 But I'm the kind of woman
 That was built to last
 They tried erasing me
 But they couldn't wipe out my past
 To save my child
 I'd rather go hungry
 I got all of Ethiopia inside of me
 And my blood flows
 Through every man
 In this godless land that delivered me
 I've cried so many tears, even the blind can see
 This is a woman's world
 This is my world
 This is a woman's world
 For this man's girl
 There ain't a woman in this world
 Not a woman or a little girl
 That can't deliver love
 In a man's world
 I've born and I've bread
 I've cleaned and I've fed
 And for my healing wits
 I've been called a witch
 I've crackled in the fire
 And been called a liar
 I've died so many times
 I'm only just coming to life
 Woman, this is a woman's world
 This is my world (woman)
 This is a woman's world
 For this man's girl
 There ain't a woman in this world
 Not a woman or a little girl (woman)
 That can't deliver love
 To a man's world
 ♪
 My blood flows
 Through every man and every child
 In this godless land
 That delivered me
 I cried so many tears, even the blind can see
 This is a woman's world
 This is my world
 This is a woman's world
 For this man's girl
 There ain't a woman in this world
 Not a woman or a little girl (woman)
 That can't deliver love (woman)
 In a man's world (woman)
 Oh, this is a woman's world
