Beauty Is Only Skin Deep

It's What lies beneath That Really Counts



I"m A woman Hear Me Well


I am woman hear me well,

I'm as talented as hell.

When you see me pass

I'm not travelling second class

"Cause I am woman".





I can hit a golf ball

long and straight

then toss a gourmet dinner

upon your plate,

pound my gavel in a court

hand out justice where it's sought

or head a giant corporation,

with wit and inspritation.





Yes I am woman hear me well

I'm as talented as hell

When you see me pass

I'm not trevelling second class,

"Cause I am woman".





I can hold a baby to my breast

and debate loudly with the best,

gently wipe away a tear,

and patch any hole that may appear,

with a hammer nail and spanner

convert a house into a manor,

to a heart that's bent and broken,

heal with words so softly spoken.





yes I am woman hear me well

I'm as talented as hell

When you see me pass

I not travelling second class

"Cause I am woman".





I can mingle with the best,

pass any kind of test,

give birth with the kind of ease

that would bring man down to his knees,

I can knit and sew and mend,

design tall builings end to end,

with a minimum of pain,

remove a tumour from a brain.





Yes I am woman hear me well

I'm as talented as hell

When you see me pass

I'm not travelling second class,

"cause I am woman".





I have a black belt in Karate

I can lead a political party,

on any instrument I can tinkle

iron a shirt without a wrinkle

be the sovereign of a nation

a whiz at navigation,

then pilot a Jumbo Jet,

and give my heart to a homeless pet.





Yes I am woman hear me well,

I'm as talented as hell

when you see me pass

I'm not travelling second class

"cause I am woman".





A nuclear physicist I could be

an astronaut making history

a plumber or a nurse,

a grand speaker without rehearse

a barmaid pulling beer

or the mother of the year

a detective fighting crime

or digging coal down in a mine.





Yes I am woman hear me well

I'm as talented as hell

when you see me pass

I'm not travelling second class

" cause I am woman"





I can wield a heavy spade,

as a mechanic I make the grade,

I can form a beautiful bouquet,

plow a field and then toss hay.

There is nothing I can't do

yet I'm a lady through and through,

I have a voice I have a brain,

Need I bother to explain?





That I'm a woman hear me well,
I'm as talented as hell,

When you see me pass

I'm not travelling second class,

because I am woman.
