In the morning when I wake up
As I comb my hair
I can hear my daddy saying
It's a big big world out there
While putting on my make-up
His words linger in the air
Just use what your God gave you
And you can make it anywhere
I'm so glad that I'm a woman
And know I wouldn't trade
I know I've got it made 'cause
We're the lifeline of mankind
And now is the time for me
Life is such a challenge
We live it day by day
