Текст песни Woman, Neneh Cherry
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
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,

I ve crackled in the fire
And been called a liar.
