Or if you're smart or dumb
A womans place in this old world
Is under some mans 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 womans lot is to give and give
And go on giving
A womans 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
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
And I'm glad it happened that way
Oh I was born a woman
And I'm glad it happened that way
It makes no difference if you're rich or poor Or if you're smart or dumb A womans place in this old world Is under some mans 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 womans lot is to give and give And go on giving A womans 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 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 And I'm glad it happened that way Oh I was born a woman And I'm glad it happened that way Explain Request ×
