'take It Like A Woman' Lyrics - Singles - Luba

words on my lips 

I try to fight them 

bitter and burning 

one spark can ignite them 

throws back his head 

and lights up a cigarette 

playing fire with fire 

I blaze into someone else 

as I say 

I don't mind 

been wasting time 

I've got better things 

to do with my life 

no battle cries 

be civilized 

'cause this time I'm gonna take it like 

I'm gonna take it like a woman 

why don't you take it like a man 

I'm not gonna cry, Oh! no 

just make you understand 

I can take it like a woman 

I've taken all I can 

I'm not gonna die, Oh! no 

I gonna take it like a woman 

slap on the wrist 

no further indictment 

this sister is learning 

her poetic licence 

throws back her head 

and lights up a cigarette 

playing fire against 

higher resistance 

she's someone else 

I don't mind 

been wasting time 

I've got better things 

to do with my love 

no battle cries 

be civilized 

this time I'm gonna take it like 

I'm gonna take it like a woman 

repeat chorus
