I close my eyes and she's right there Barbie dolls and teddy bears Picking buttercups from the yard Putting them in mason jars Tea parties and pecan pie Make me think of her every time Yes sir, yes maam It wouldn't be who I am
If it wasn't for a woman Leading me by the hand Helping me understand If it wasn't for a woman Teaching me wrong from right Praying for me at night I'd be half the woman I am If it wasn't for a woman
Met a man that treats me good Opens my door like a gentleman should She'd always said: Don't settle for less Sometimes when I miss her I can still hear her sweet hearts I love you, be safe I wouldn't be here today
If it wasn't for a woman Leading me by the hand Helping me understand If it wasn't for a woman Teaching me wrong from right Praying for me at night I'd be half the woman I am If it wasn't for a woman
She saw your face in a photograph Asked: Who is this beauty with a bible in her hand? I said: She's my angel and I'm the girl Who wouldn't know how to face this world
If it wasn't for a woman Leading me by the hand Helping me understand If it wasn't for a woman Teaching me wrong from right Praying for me at night I'd be half the woman I am If it wasn't for a woman
