I can wash out forty-four pairs of socks
And have them hangin out on the line
I can starch and iron two dozen shirts
Before you can count from one to nine
I can scoop up a great big dipper
Full of lard from the drippin's can
Throw it in the skillet, go out and do my
Shopping and be back before it melts in the pan
'Cause I'm a woman
:thumb35018397:
I can rub and scrub till this old house
Is shinin like a dime
Feed the baby, grease the car and
Powder my face at the same time
Get all dressed up, go out and swing
Till four a.m. and then
Lay down at five, jump up at six
And start all over again
'Cause I'm a woman
:thumb51753273:
If you come to me sickly, you know
I'm gonna make you well
If you come to me hexed up,
You know I'm gonna break the spell
If you come to me hungry,
You know I'm gonna fill you full o' grits
If it's lovin' you're lackin', I'll kiss you
And give you the shiverin' fits
'Cause I'm a woman

I can stretch a greenback dollar bill
From here to kingdom come
I can play the numbers, pay my bills
And still end up with some
I got a twenty dollar gold piece says
There ain't nothin I can't do
I can make a dress out of a feed bag
And I can make a man out of you
'Cause I'm a woman
I'll say it again
'Cause I'm a woman
And that's all
I will make no excuses
For being a woman,
A woman, the woman, I am.
I exalt in my womanhood,
As I possess creative powers,
A woman, the woman, I am.
I am a daughter of a woman,
a woman, the woman, I am.
I am a mother of a woman,
A woman, the woman, I am.
:thumb41631418:
I am endowed with special knowing,
a woman, the woman, I am,
My higher power blesses me abundantly,
A woman, the woman, I am.
My earthly connection to my heavenly
Connection makes me the
Woman, the woman, I am.

I've been millions of places
and I've seen millions of faces
and there will never be a woman, a woman like me
I can go where I want to go
stay where I want to stay

I can see who I wanna see
I can speak when I want to speak
I can do what I want
I'm a woman
a full grown woman

I've kicked it with aborigines in the country
been around the world, learned lots of culture
that's true, I do want I want to do
I can go where I want to go
play who I want to play
dis who I dis
and love who I want to love
can't nobody tell me nothing
I can do what I wanna do
I can see who I wanna see
I can speak when I want to speak
I can do what I want
I'm a woman
a full grown woman

to take me where I want to go

and if you don't like it you know where you can go

I can speak when I want to speak
I can do what I want

I am woman hear me roar
In numbers too big too ignore
And I know too much to go back and pretend
'Cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again.
Oh yes, I am wise
But it's wisdom for the pain
Yes I paid my price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong, I am invincible
I am woman.
You can bend but never break me
'Cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'Cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul.

Oh yes, I am wise
But it's wisdom for the pain
Yes I paid my price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong, I am invincible
I am woman.
I am woman watch me grow
Se me standing toe to tow
As I spread my loving arms across the land
But I'm still an embryo
With a long, long way to go
Until I make my brother understand.
Oh yes, I am wise
But it's wisdom for the pain
Yes I paid my price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong, I am invincible
I am woman.
Oh woman
I am woman
I am woman.
