about

Inspired by International Woman's Day, my dearly departed mum, my courageous and compassionate best friend, and the late great songwriter Helen Reddy who passed away in 2020.

Happy Mother's Day to all Womxn and their children of all ages.
Rest In Peace to all those Mothers who've returned to dust.
Birth In Peace to all the Mothers to be.

lyrics

I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back and pretend
Cos I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again...

Chorus:
O yes, I am wise, but it's wisdom born of pain
Yes I paid the price, but look how much I gained
If I have to- I can do anything
I am strong
I am invincible
I am Woman

You can bend but never break me
Cos it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
Cos you've deepened the conviction in ma soul...

Chorus

I am woman, watch me go
See me standing toe-to-toe
As I spread my loving arms across the land...
But I'm still an embryo
With a long long way to go
Til I make- my brother understand...

Chorus
