Hope 2011 brings health and happiness!!!
I heard this song the other day and had forgotten all about it. The words strike home much more now than they did when I last heard it -- cuz I was probably a wee, small child -- so I felt it deserved to be brought back to the spotlight.
I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back and pretend
'cause 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
Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've 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
'cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul
CHORUS
I am woman watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my lovin' arms across the land
But I'm still an embryo
With a long long way to go
Until I make my brother understand
Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to I can face anything
I am strong
I am invincible
I am woman

Happy New Year, Urban.

Happy New Year.
Helen Reddy, Baby!
It makes me sad that that song is used as the punchline to jokes, and viewed as a comical part of the 70's. It actually has excellent lyrics. Thanks for reminding me!
i hope this year brings blessings, because we've had enough of the other sort already. we're all about due for good tidings.
An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves. ~Bill Vaughan
I was desirous of making a contribution to this thread: my WV is "spermi".
