take it like a woman

sweet liberty i don’t want you i don’t need you any more these days sweet freedom i don’t need to be knocking down your door these ways lie down and make it happen lie down and make it last there’s an angel every corner there’s a devil blocking every path

sweet jesus i want you so much seems i need you more and more these days a seven-year sinner, smash the mirror lift me up from my malaise stand up and make it happen stand up and make it last there’s a heaven on every corner there’s a snake down in that grass

and life goes on and on got to take it like a man as little things go right, and little things go wrong you got to take it like a woman got to jump just like a salmon got to take it like a woman sweet future i seek you i don’t want to get burned again i’m reeling sweet feeling from a past that lead us astray

too beautiful and costly it’s a dream we can’t afford too costly and beautiful it’s a dream that’ll cost us the earth stand up and make it happen stand up and make it last there’s a heaven on every corner there’s a snake down in that grass

and life goes on and on got to take it like a man as little things go right, and little things go wrong you got to take it like a woman while life goes on and on got to take it like a man as little things go right, and little things go wrong you got to take it like a woman you’d better jump just like a salmon got to take it like a woman you’d better take it like a woman
