In the morning when I wake up
As I comb my hair
I can hear my daddy saying
It's a big big world out there

While putting on my make-up
His words linger in the air
Just use what your God gave you
And you can make it anywhere

I'm so glad that I'm a woman
And know I wouldn't trade
I know I've got it made 'cause
We're the lifeline of mankind
And now is my time for me

Life is such a challenge
We live it day by day
You never know what's gonna happen
Or what might come your way

Just stop and think about it
There's nothing we can do
Men can't live without us
And we can't live without them too

CHORUS:
