Luba - Take It Like A Woman lyrics

I try to fight them

bitter and burning

one spark can ignite them

throws back his head

and lights up a cigarette

playing fire with fire

I blaze into someone else

as I say

I don't mind

been wasting time

I've got better things

to do with my life

no battle cries

be civilized

'cause this time I'm gonna take it like

I'm gonna take it like a woman

why don't you take it like a man

I'm not gonna cry, Oh! no

just make you understand

I can take it like a woman

I've taken all I can

I'm not gonna die, Oh! no

I gonna take it like a woman

slap on the wrist

no further indictment

this sister is learning

her poetic licence

throws back her head

and lights up a cigarette

playing fire against

higher resistance

she's someone else

I don't mind

been wasting time

I've got better things

to do with my love

no battle cries

be civilized

this time I'm gonna take it like

I'm gonna take it like a woman

repeat chorus
