How Strong Is A Woman

(album: Straight From The Heart - 1972)

There seems to be some conflict
As to who the strongest is
Some would say that it's hard to tell
When they're both bringing home the check
I heard a woman say she can do
Anything any man can
I'm here to tell you that the woman that said it
Ain't even have herself a man
If you wanna know

How strong is a woman?
How strong is a woman?
Well I can tell you that
A woman is strong as the need
Of the man she loves
A woman is strong as the need
Of the man she loves

Once I had a mind to join the womens liberation
But that was before I'd been touched by love's sweet sensation
Now it takes all my strength
To make my man feel tall
Girl, I'd rather be weak in love than to have no love at all
If you wanna know

How strong is a woman?
How strong is a woman?
Well I can tell you that
A woman is strong as the need
Of the man she loves
A woman is strong as the need
Of the man she loves

How strong is a woman?
How strong is a woman?
Well I can tell you that
A woman is strong as the need
Of the man she loves
A woman is strong as the need
Of the man she loves
