Jungle Brothers Lyrics
"Black Woman"

Black Woman, mother of my earth

Black Woman, you gave me birth

You can truly see what's in me

You can help me be the best that I can be

You feed my fire when I'm on the wire

Keepin' me calm when it's gettin' higher

Sweet like sugar and hot like wine

Always keepin' ya on my mind

You're givin' my life a new light to reach for

Giving me so much how could I ask for more

Keepin' us tight when we're gettin' loose

The darker the berry the sweeter the juice

Black Woman

Recess

You started out just a little girl

Given the power to change the world

And though some of your ways to man are odd

You are the proof that there is a God

Black Woman ya are the mother of all

Black Woman ya stand so firm and tall

And as you aged mind body and soul

You became more beautiful

You are the Future you are the Wisdom

The Wisdom that the evil Forces tried to hide

But no longer will you be hidden

In my Jungle you will always exist

Your wish is my command

Yo command is my wish

And the job of the Man is to respect

Protect be fruitful and multiply

Honor and love love and honor

Until the Day She Dies

Black Woman

Recess

Love the woman's weapon

With every great man there's a woman behind him

Her womb is the chamber that produces life

Her breast provides the nutrition for growth

A guardian angel in teh flesh

Representin' the man that watches over us both

Sent from the Heavens and the skies above

Black Woman it's you that I love

You are the Moon that I reach for

There's no doubt in my mind that it's you I adore

Sent from the Heavens and the skies above

Black Woman it's you that I love
