Lyrics

BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!

PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, I BEEN HAVIN' THIS DREAM
AND I SWEAR THAT IT WILL COME TRUE....
AND IN THIS DREAM WHEN THE SUN ROSE UP,
THAT EVERY DAUGHTER ROSE UP TOO....

(NOW LEMME TELL YOU 'BOUT IT)

AND I SAW MY MAMA
(SAW MY MAMA)
SHOUTIN' OUT HER DOOR.
"IF I CAN'T STAND A LITTLE BIT TALLER,
I WILL STAND NO MORE."
AND I HEARD MY AUNTIE
(HEARD MY AUNTIE)
TELL UNCLE SAM TODAY.
(TELL IT LIKE IT IS)
US SOLDIER GIRLS, WE LOVE OUR COUNTRY,
BUT IT WORKS BOTH WAYS.

(b section)
WE ARE YOUR SISTERS AND YOUR NEIGHBORS
AND IF WE CAN HANDLE LABOR,
WE CAN TAKE ANYTHING YOU GOT.
THIS IS OUR PRIME
THIS IS OUR TIME
YEAH BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!

(chorus)
BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!
BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!
STAND WITH ME
OR STAND YOUR GROUND.
HOLD ME
JUST DON'T HOLD ME DOWN
HERE WE COME,
READY OR NOT!
BEIN' A WOMAN....
BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!
I HEARD MY GRANNY
(HEARD MY GRANNY)
SHARE HER ONE REGRET
SAYIN' "CHILD, MY TIME'S GETTIN' SHORTER
AND WE AIN'T THERE YET.
I TOLD MY GRANNY
(TOLD MY GRANNY)
YOU KNOW, I UNDERSTAND
(I UNDERSTAND NOW)
GET ON MY BACK AND I WILL TAKE YOU
TO THE PROMISED LAND.

WE ARE YOUR SISTERS AND YOUR NEIGHBORS
AND IF WE CAN HANDLE LABOR,
WE CAN TAKE ANYTHING YOU GOT.
THIS IS OUR PRIME
THIS IS OUR TIME
YEAH BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!

BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!
BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!
STAND WITH ME
OR STAND YOUR GROUND.
HOLD ME
JUST DON'T HOLD ME DOWN.
HERE WE COME,
READY OR NOT!
BEIN' A WOMAN....
BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!

HISTORY HAS BROUGHT US
(TO THE PLACE WHERE WE BELONG)
TO EVERYONE WHO FOUGHT US....
(TAKE OUR HAND AND COME ALONG)
OUR HEAT IS IN OUR POWER
(THE JOY IS IN OUR CRIES)
IT'S TIME TO SEIZE THE HOUR
(THAT HEAT'S ABOUT TO RISE!)

WE ARE YOUR SISTERS AND YOUR NEIGHBORS
AND IF WE CAN HANDLE LABOR,
WE CAN TAKE ANYTHING YOU GOT.
THIS IS OUR PRIME
THIS IS OUR TIME
YEAH BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!

BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!
BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!
STAND WITH ME
OR STAND YOUR GROUND.
HOLD ME
JUST DON'T HOLD ME DOWN.
HERE WE COME,
READY OR NOT!
BEIN' A WOMAN....
BEIN' A WOMAN IS HOT!
