She Can

Trying to stay positive, trying to keep my nose clean,
Working hard every day, it's no scene,
And life just isn't what I thought.
Worry about dying, worry about time,
Worry about worrying,
You think I'm out of my mind,
But life just isn't what we thought.

Don't say that I'm too sensitive,
I'm proud to give a damn,
Too emotional and difficult,
Nothing like a man,
Well it's just because I'm a woman that you
Put it that way
Oh, would you say that to a man.
I can do anything you can.

Little girl, your body
Will never be your own
That's their collateral, never mind your soul
It's in every second look.
I wish I'd know that sooner,
I wish I been more proud;
Brought up in silence
I should have shouted loud.
It's a bitter storybook.

Oh, don't tell her to smile,
She's just trying to get through her day.
Well, would you say it to a man?
Would you even see him walking your way?

Don't say that I'm too sensitive,
I'm proud to give a damn,
Too emotional and difficult,
Nothing like a man,
Well it's just because I'm a woman that you
Put it that way
Oh, would you say that to a man.

Don't say that I'm too sensitive,
I'm proud to give a damn,
Too emotional and difficult,
Nothing like a man,
Well it's just because I'm a woman that you
Put it that way
Oh, would you say that to a man.
She can do anything he can.
Oh, would you say that to a man.
I can do anything you can.
