BECAUSE I AM A WOMAN

I can see you are disappointed by the way you look at me
And I am sorry I am not the woman, you thought I will be
Yes I have made my mistakes but listen and understand
My mistakes are not worse than yours just because I am a woman

So when you look at me, don’t feel sorry for yourself
Just think of all ‘the shame’ you have brought somebody else
Just let’s pretend you are this (the shame) then we both know where we stand
My mistakes are not worse than yours just because I am a woman

Now a man would take a good girl and ruin her reputation
But when he wants to marry, well that’s a different situation
He would just walk off and leave her, to do the best she can
While he looks for an angel to where his wedding band

Now I know that I am no Angel, if that is what you thought you had found
I was just a victim of a man who let me down
Yes I have made my mistakes but listen and understand
That my mistakes are not worse than yours just because I am a woman

By Dolly Parton

You might have had a rough past, tough teenage years or a dirty stories…never let this put you down or anyone put you down because of this.
You have made a turn around and that is where the difference is. Your new self is who you are and that is the only thing that determines where you are going!
