Woman - Neneh Cherry

You gotta be fortunate, you gotta be lucky now

I was just sitting here thinkin' good and bad

But I'm the kind of woman that was built to last

They tried erasing me, they couldn't wipe out my past

To save my child, I'd rather go hungry

I've got all of Ethiopia inside of me

And my blood flows through every man

In this Godless land, that delievered 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 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

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 girl

That can't deliver love to a man's world

And my blood flows

Through every man and every child

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 girl

That can't deliver love in a man's world

Oh this is a woman's world
