Cradle to grave x6
Grace jones
I am woman
I am sun
I can give birth to she
I can give birth to son
And I can be cool
Soft as a breeze
Ill be a hurricane
Ripping up trees
Cant see where I run
No matter how far x4
I am woman
I am sun
I can give birth to she
I can give birth to son
And I can be cool
Soft as a breeze
Ill be a hurricane
Ripping up trees
I am woman
I am sun
Lonesome man wiser boy x2
I can scheme
Oh I can lie
Ill take care of you till the day you die
I can hold brush
I can push broom
When I walk by flowers will bloom
Lonesome man wiser boy x2
Ill be a hurricane
Ripping up trees
You keep taking x6
I keep aching
I can scheme
Oh I can lie
Ill take care of you till the day you die
Ill be a hurricane
Ripping up trees
You keep taking x6
I keep aching x13
