[HANASHIR:9886] Re: I Am A Woman, lyrics

[Moss5533 <Moss5533...>]

Ellen,

Here are the words, basically, as they appear in "Rise Up. . ."
I've never heard this song before and would love a cassette of the melody if 
you have a moment to record it.  I also have written a "Song About Women" if 
you'd like to hear that. 

1.I am a woman here on planet Earth
   I have the breath of life in me, a gift given at birth
   No one, no body, no power that be
   Can ever, ever, take this gift away from me

2. I am a . . .
    I have a song to sing in me, a song sung birth to birth
    No one. . .be/Can. . .take this song away from me

3. Flesh, bones & blood in me, before & after birth

4. I have the will to live in me, I learned that at my birth

5. I have the breath of life in me, a gift given at birth
(repeat last 2 lines with:. . .this life away from me)

Hope this helps,
Fran Uditsky Moss
