Womanhood

Well, he said hold on, Patricia, I only tried to kiss ya

She said okay and then said, don't you dare

She seems so badly shakin', he thought he was mistaken

But it sure looked like she bowed her head in prayer

I am a Christian, Lord but I'm a woman too

If you are listenin', Lord, please show me what to do

I've tried hard to be what mama says is good

As I step into my womanhood

Shortly after midnight, she turned off the porch light

Walked into her bedroom all alone

She sat down and said well, Lord, God, I've been through hell

Lord, wonderin' if I did right or wrong

I am a Christian, Lord but I'm a woman too

If you are listenin', Lord, please show me what to do

I've tried hard to be what mama says is good

As I step into my womanhood

One more time

You heard, yes I am a Christian, Lord but I'm a woman too

If you are listenin', Lord, please show me what to do

I've tried hard to be what mama says is good

As I step into my womanhood

Slowly slip into my womanhood

Slowly slip into my womanhood
