Lyrics Toni Childs

Toni Childs

The Woman's Boat

Ooh now, I am a woman

And you are a man

I was born different from you

On this earth we both stand

Now, as a daughter

I have learned rules and laws

What to say and not to say

What's acceptable to be called

In the woman's boat

On the woman's sea

They are calling us

They are calling us to sea

And yes, I have my worries

About the human race

You see my breasts are aching

And I hope it's not too late

For the woman's boat

On the woman's sea

They are calling us

And they're calling me

How the seasons change?

They rock and they rage

Will I please allow the thunder

And the birth inside of me?

Now, do you believe in powers

Like the human and the seed?

And how evolution happens

How the whirlpool spins in me?

Oh, grandmother tell us your secrets

Your stories passed down through the years

Could I really believe it?

Is there something happening here?

In the woman's boat

On the woman's sea

Is there something hidden

Something to see

Oh, the seasons change

They're rocky and they rage

Will I please allow the thunder

And the birth inside of me?
