<\/strong>Pretty women wonder where my secret lies<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
I’m not cute or built to suit a model’s fashion size<\/span><\/div>\n
But when I start to tell them <\/span><\/div>\n
They think I’m telling lies. <\/span><\/div>\n
I say <\/span><\/div>\n
It’s in the reach of my arms <\/span><\/div>\n
The span of my hips <\/span><\/div>\n
The stride of my steps <\/span><\/div>\n
The curl of my lips. <\/span><\/div>\n
I’m a woman <\/span><\/div>\n
Phenomenally <\/span><\/div>\n
Phenomenal woman <\/span><\/div>\n
That’s me.
I walk into a room <\/span><\/div>\n
Just as cool as you please <\/span><\/div>\n
And to a man <\/span><\/div>\n
The fellows stand or <\/span><\/div>\n
Fall down on their knees <\/span><\/div>\n
Then they swarm around me <\/span><\/div>\n
A hive of honey bees. <\/span><\/div>\n
I say <\/span><\/div>\n
It’s the fire in my eyes <\/span><\/div>\n
And the flash of my teeth <\/span><\/div>\n
The swing of my waist <\/span><\/div>\n
And the joy in my feet. <\/span><\/div>\n
I’m a woman <\/span><\/div>\n
Phenomenally <\/span><\/div>\n
Phenomenal woman <\/span><\/div>\n
That’s me.
Men themselves have wondered <\/span><\/div>\n
What they see in me <\/span><\/div>\n
They try so much <\/span><\/div>\n
But they can’t touch <\/span><\/div>\n
My inner mystery. <\/span><\/div>\n
When I try to show them <\/span><\/div>\n
They say they still can’t see. <\/span><\/div>\n
I say <\/span><\/div>\n
It’s in the arch of my back <\/span><\/div>\n
The sun of my smile <\/span><\/div>\n
The ride of my breasts <\/span><\/div>\n
The grace of my style. <\/span><\/div>\n
I’m a woman <\/span><\/div>\n
Phenomenally <\/span><\/div>\n
Phenomenal woman <\/span><\/div>\n
That’s me. <\/span><\/div>\n
Now you understand <\/span><\/div>\n
Just why my head’s not bowed <\/span><\/div>\n
I don’t shout or jump about <\/span><\/div>\n
Or have to talk real loud <\/span><\/div>\n
When you see me passing <\/span><\/div>\n
It ought to make you proud. <\/span><\/div>\n
I say It’s in the click of my heels <\/span><\/div>\n
The bend of my hair The palm of my hand <\/span><\/div>\n
The need for my care. <\/span><\/div>\n
‘Cause I’m a woman <\/span><\/div>\n
Phenomenally <\/span><\/div>\n
Phenomenal woman <\/span><\/div>\n
That’s me.<\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
