Woman's Work

(album: Strong As Steel - 1990)

7:45 on the radio, and the voice says
Time to rise and shine
Gotta get you up, then I disappear
In the time that I'm away from you
Gotta start the grind, gotta turn it on
Make it happen, gotta use my mind
Start again tonight with a fantasy
But today it's just survival
Trying to keep it all alive

A woman's work is never done
I don't stop (take care of everyone)
A woman's work is never never done

Staying home ain't easy and who's to say
It don't count, if the job don't pay
Working double duty, doing overtime
All I need is what I'm getting from you
Taking care of business with the money man
Is a game, don't misunderstand
Tonight you'll make it right, take me away
All I need is some affection
Shoot a little love in my direction

A woman's work is never done
I don't stop (from dawn to setting sun)
A woman's work is never never done

You should know
What I need, yea
Baby what you got
What you got
Won't ya show me some affection
Shoot a little love in my direction

A woman's work is never done
I don't stop (Take care of everyone)
A woman's work is never never done

A woman's work is never done
I don't stop (from dawn to setting sun)
A woman's work is never never done
