Shirley Bassey - All Woman lyrics

He's home again from another day

She smiles at him as he walks through the door

She wonders if it will be Okay

It's hard for her when he doesn't respond

He says babe you look a mess

You look dowdy in that dress

It's just not like it used to be

Then she says:

"I may not be a lady

But I'm All Woman

From Monday to Sunday I work harder than you know

I'm no classy lady

But I'm All Woman

And this woman needs a little love to make her strong

You're not the only one"

She stands there and lets the tears flow

The tears that she's been holding back so long

She wonders where did all the loving go

The love they used to share when they were strong

She says:

"Yes I look a mess

But I don't love you any less

I thought you always thought enough of me

I may not be a lady

But I'm All Woman

From Monday to Sunday I work my fingers to the bone

I'm no classy lady

But I'm All Woman

And this woman needs a little love to make her strong

You're not the only one"

He holds her and hangs his head in shame

He doesn't see her like he used to do

He's too wrapped up in working for his pay

He hasn't seen the pain he's put her through

Attention that he paid

Just vanished in the haze

He remembers how it used to be

When he used to say:

"You'll always be a lady

'Cause You're All Woman

From Monday to Sunday I love you much more than you know

You're a classy lady

'Cause You're All Woman

This woman needs a loving man to keep her warm"

You're not the only one

You're not the only one
