Born A Woman Lyrics

It makes no difference if you're rich or poor
Or even if you're smart or dumb
A woman's place in this old world
Is under some man's thumb

You must speak in heavy and then must be hard
Trying to make a little dent in life
A breeding feeling by your feet
What goes on rest of the life

'Cos if you're born a woman
You're born to be hurt, you're born to be lied to
Stepped on, shitted on and treated like dirt
If you're born a woman, you're born to be hurt

A woman's place is to give and give
And then to give some more
And this old heart to understand
What she is giving for
[ Nick Lowe Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

And wake up later in dead of night
At someone's beck and call
A woman's place in this old world
Ain't no place at all

'Cos, if you're born a woman
You're born to be hurt

'Cos if you're born a woman
You're born to be hurt, you're born to be lied to
Stepped on, shitted on and treated like dirt
If you're born a woman, you're born to be hurt

Born to be hurt, born to be hurt
Born to be hurt, born to be hurt
Born to be hurt

It makes no difference if you're rich or poor
Or even if you're smart or dumb
A woman's place in this old world
