Every day she tells her daughter, baby you're not just a pretty face She says you gotta work much harder than every single man, that's just the way But she goes to the same job every day, she's overworked and out of pay Just cause the way her body's made, ain't that insane? If you've never been told how you gotta be, what you gotta wear, how you gotta speak If you've never shouted so we heard, you ain't lived in a woman's world And if you can't see that it's gotta change, only want the fun, you're not the brains If you think that's the way it works, you ain't lived in a woman's world No, no, no, no, no Try living in a woman's world Every night she tells her daughter, don't you know a change is gonna come There's a whisper in the water, and I know the tide is gonna turn No, no, no, but she goes to the same job every day, she's overworked and out of pay Just cause the way her body's made, ain't that insane? If you've never been told how you gotta be, what you gotta wear, how you gotta speak If you've never shouted so we heard, you ain't lived in a woman's world And if you can't see that it's gotta change, only want the fun, you're not the brains If you really think that's the way it works, you ain't lived in a woman's world Just look how far that we've gotten, don't think that we'll ever stop This ain't the way it's gotta be, no this ain't the way it's got to be Hold up, there will be a day, when everyone's treated the same It's the only way it's got to be, it's the only way it's got to be If you've never been told how you gotta be, what you gotta wear, how you gotta speak If you've never shouted so we heard, you ain't lived in a woman's world And if you can't see that it's gotta change, only want the fun, you're not the brains If you really think that's the way it works, you ain't lived in a woman's world Try living, try living in a woman's world Try living in a woman's world Try living, try living in a woman's world I hear you say, try living, try try living You got to try, try living in a woman's world
