Neneh Cherry - Woman Lyrics
You gotta be fortunateYou gotta be lucky nowI was just sitting hereThinking good and badBut Im the kinda womanThat was built to lastThey tried erasing meBut they couldnt wipe out my pastTo save my childId rather go hungryI got all of ethiopiaInside of meAnd my blood flowsThrough every manIn this godless landThat delivered meIve cried so many tears even the blind can seeChorus:This is a womans world.This is my world.This is a womans worldFor this mans girl.There aint a woman in this world,Not a woman or a little girl,That cant deliver loveIn a mans world.Ive born and Ive bread.Ive cleaned and Ive fed.And for my healing witsIve been called a witch.Ive crackled in the fireAnd been called a liar.Ive died so many timesIm only just coming to life.Chorus:This is a womans world.This is my world.This is a womans worldFor this mans girl.There aint a woman in this world,Not a woman or a little girl,That cant deliver loveIn a mans world.My blood flowsThrough every man and every childIn this godless landThat delivered meI cried so many tears even the blind can seeChorus:This is a womans world.This is my world.This is a womans worldFor this mans girl.There aint a woman in this world,Not a woman or a little girl,That cant deliver loveIn a mans world.
