I'm A Woman (I'm A Backbone) - Rufus, Chaka Khan

I am a species born to die

Understanding this, I hardly cry

Growin up and out, Ill marry you

Ill bear your kids and be your mama too cause

Cause Im a woman and Im a backbone

Im a woman and Im a backbone

Everybody needs one

Goin on I live from day to day

Give a little heart for my life to pay

Smile and then I need to cry

Never knowin if I lie (or die)

Understand you will not see me down

Both of my feet are on the ground

Come lay your head upon my chest

Ill love you hard, Ill give my best
