Anne Murray - Born a Woman lyrics

rate me

Sandy Posey

It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor

Or if you're smart or dumb

A woman's place in this old world

Is under some man's thumb

And if you're born a woman

You're born to be hurt.

You're born to be stepped on, lied to, cheated on

And treated like dirt

Ah, if you're born a woman

You're born to be hurt.

A woman's lot is to give and give

And go on giving

A woman's got to love and lose

And go on living.

Well, I was born a woman

I didn't have no say

And when my man finally comes home to me

He makes me glad it happened that way.

Because to be his woman

No price is too great to pay

Yes, I was born a woman

I'm glad it happened that way.

Oh, I was born a woman.

I'm glad it happened that way.

Oh, I was born a woman...
