Anne Murray feat. Sandy Posey Lyrics
"Born A Woman"

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...
