Born A Woman Lyrics

I was born a woman I'm glad it happened that way It makes no difference 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 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 [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/born-a-woman-lyrics-jean-shepard.html ] And when my man fin'lly comes home 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 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
