Luscious Jackson - Strongman Lyrics

When a man can take a stand
And wash his hands of his scams
And watch his woman stand unafraid
Aid her in her fight to get paid
Help her get her medicines made
Let her step on out of the shade

I will call him
Super solid
I will call him
Super solid

It takes a strongman
To stand by a strong woman
Yes it does
It takes a strongman
To stand by a strong woman
It takes a strongman
Yes it does

Is love sex?
Is the soul vexed?
Is the earth next?
We need respect

Can we love outside of the clan
Where's the sister in brotherman
Back to back
Divided we stand
Can we put some love
In the land?

I will call him
Super solid
I will call him
Super solid

It takes a strongman
To stand by a strong woman
Yes it does
It takes a strongman
To stand by a strong woman
It takes a strongman
Yes it does

Conquering, stealing
Wheeling and dealing
Tell me is this planet
Healing?
Conquering, stealing
Wheeling and dealing
Tell me is this planet
Healing?

When a man knows
Where he came from
He can't tell me
I am shameful
And I will call him
Super solid
I will call him
Super solid

It takes a strongman
To stand by a strong woman
It takes a strongman
To stand by a strong woman
It takes a strongman
It takes a strongman

He can stop trying to get even
He will know he's here for a reason
To stand beside, his woman in peace
She's got the way to release him
