Lyrics

I
It started at the apple tree
I took a bite, you followed me
My name is woman. my name is eve and I'm a woman

It's written in the history books
You lost your strength from the hair I took
My name is woman. my name's delilah and I'm a woman

Chorus:
Complicated, perfume-aided, many times exagerated
Sometimes loved and sometimes hated, woman
I am a woman. my name is woman

Ii
A better world I tried to make
Then they burned me at the stake
My name is woman. I am joan and I'm a woman

Wherefore art thow, love of mine?
Greatest lovers of all time
My name is woman. I am juliet and I'm a woman

(To chorus)

Late at night when all is quiet
You reach out to hold me tight
My name is woman. my name is jean and I'm your woman
