Cherry Neneh Woman Lyrics

Woman Lyrics

You gotta be fortunate
You gotta be lucky now
I was just sitting here
Thinking good and bad
But I`m the kinda 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

Chorus:
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.

Chorus

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

Chorus
