[Verse 1]
Sickly sweet, candied beet
In a fragrant greasy spoon
Knock back black coffee
Working 'til the afternoon
[Pre-Chorus]
She hardly sleeps
She hardly eats
She hardly breathes
When you're in her breathing space
[Verse 2]
Cat call and white van patrol
In the streets as she walks from work
Grip hard and jeer from afar
As he sits with a drooling smirk
[Pre-Chorus]
She hardly sleeps
She hardly eats
She hardly breathes
When you're in her breathing space
[Chorus]
She brushes it off
Like she always does
Jogs through the subway
Disappears with a flood
I am a woman
And I am a woman
I am a woman
I am a woman
[Verse 3]
She comes over, hear her moan
The walls are paper thin
Friends come over, they pass her round
It echoes round the bend
[Pre-Chorus]
She hardly sleeps
She hardly eats
She hardly breathes
When you're in her breathing space
[Chorus]
She brushes it off
Like she always does
Puts on her makeup
Passes her day
[Pre-Chorus]
As she hardly sleeps
She hardly eats
She hardly breathes
When you're in her breathing space
[Chorus]
I am a woman
And I am a woman
I am a woman
And I am a woman
And I am your mother
I am your sister
And I am your daughter
I am a woman
