All Woman Lyrics


Shirley Bassey All Woman

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
