Dolly Parton - Just Because I'm a Woman Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)

Just because, just because, just because I'm a woman.

I can see you're dissapointed by the way you look at me
And I'm sorry if I'm not the woman you thought I'd be
Yes, I've made mistakes but listen and understand
My mistakes are no worse than yours just because I'm a woman.

So when you look at me don't feel sorry for yourself
Just think of all the hurt you might have brought somebody else
Just let me tell you this then we'll both know where we stand
My mistakes are no worse than yours just because I'm a woman.

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

Well, I know that I'm no angel if that's what you thought you'd found
I am just the victim of a man who let me down
Yes, I've made mistakes but you listen and understand
My mistakes are no worse than yours just because I'm a waman.

No, my mistakes are no worse than yours just because I'm a woman...
