Woman Of The World Lyrics - Singles - Lari White

(Lari White/Chuck Jones) 

She's worked her way from Paris, Texas to Moscow, Alabam' 

Tended bars and tended babies from Rome to Bethlehem 

She's been the checkout queen of Abilene 

And busted flat somewhere bewteen 

The pieces of her broken dreams 

She's got scars on her heart and dirt on her hands 

But like the stars on the water she was made to rise above 

And she's done a lot of living just to find a little love 

She won't be your mama, she won't be your little girl 

She belongs to the road she's on, she's a woman of the world 

She belongs to the road she's on, she's a woman of the world 

Born and raised in South Dakota 

She's never crossed the county line 

With three young kids and a full-time job 

She just never finds the time 

The days are short and the nights are long 

Since he left her all alone 

But she's learned to make it on her own 

It's a hard way to go, but she's gonna shine
