Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

You gotta be fortunate, you gotta be lucky now

I was just sitting here, thinking good and bad

But I'm the kinda woman, that was built to last

They tried erasing me, but they couldn't wipe out my past

To save my child, I'd rather go hungry

I got all of Ethiopia, inside of me

And my blood flows, through every man

In this godless land, that delivered me

I've cried so many tears even the blind can see

This is a woman's world

This is my world

This is a woman's world

For this man's girl

There ain't a woman in this world

Not a woman or a little girl

That can't deliver love

In a man's world

I've born and I've bread, I've cleaned and I've fed

And for my healing wits, I've been called a witch

I've crackled in the fire, and been called a liar

I've died so many times, I'm only just coming to life

This is a woman's world

This is my world

This is a woman's world

For this man's girl

There ain't a woman in this world

Not a woman or a little girl

That can't deliver love

To a man's world

My blood flows, through every man and every child

In this godless land, that delivered me

I cried so many tears even the blind can see

This is a woman's world

This is my world

This is a woman's world

For this man's girl

There ain't a woman in this world

Not a woman or a little girl

That can't deliver love

In a man's world

Oh, this is a woman’s world
