Born A Woman
I was born a woman I'm glad it happened that way
It makes no difference if you're rich or poor or if you're smart or dumb
A woman's place in this old world is under some man's thumb
And if you're born a woman you're born to be hurt
You're born to be stepped on lied to cheated on and treated like dirt
If you're born a woman you're born to be hurt
A woman's lot is to give and give and go on giving
A woman's got to love and lose and go on living
Well I was born a woman I didn't have no say
And when my man fin'lly comes home he makes me glad it happened that way
Because to be his woman no price is too great to pay
Yes I was born a woman I'm glad it happened that way
Yes I was born a woman I'm glad it happened that way
Oh I was born a woman I'm glad it happened that way
Nacida Mujer
Nací mujer y me alegra que haya sido así
No importa si eres rica o pobre, inteligente o tonta
El lugar de una mujer en este viejo mundo es bajo el pulgar de algún hombre
Y si naces mujer, naces para ser herida
Naces para ser pisoteada, engañada, y tratada como basura
Si naces mujer, naces para ser herida
El destino de una mujer es dar y dar y seguir dando
Una mujer tiene que amar y perder y seguir viviendo
Bueno, nací mujer y no tuve voz
Y cuando mi hombre finalmente regresa a casa, me alegra que haya sido así
Porque ser su mujer no tiene precio demasiado alto que pagar
Sí, nací mujer y me alegra que haya sido así
Sí, nací mujer y me alegra que haya sido así
Oh, nací mujer y me alegra que haya sido así
