Woman (inter. Neneh Cherry) - Alex Hepburn

You gotta be fortunate

You gotta be lucky now

I was just sitting here

Making good or 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

Got all these wounds that just won’t heal

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 blacked sea

Woman

This is a woman’s world

This is my world

This is a woman’s world

For this man’s girl

Woman

There ain’t a woman in this world

Not a woman of a girl

They can’t deliver love

In this man’s world

I won and I bred

I’ve cleaned and I’ve feared

And through my (…)

I’ve been called a witch

I’ve crackled in the fire

And I’ve been called a liar

I’ve died so many times

I’m more than just coming alive

Woman

This is a woman’s world

This is my world

This is a woman’s world

For this man’s girl

Woman

There ain’t a woman in this world

Not a woman of a girl

They can’t deliver love

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 blacked sea

Woman

This is a woman’s world

This is my world

This is a woman’s world

For this man’s girl

Woman

There ain’t a woman in this world

Not a woman of a girl

They can’t deliver love

In this man’s world
