This song is dedicated to all of the ladies from all of the men Simply because y'all go through so much And we want y'all to know that we recognize that There are so many answers to the question what y'all do for us And so many reasons for the word why we love on y'all For instance how you just take us and lift us up Give us chance after chance and we still find a way to F things up And sometimes y'all go and blame yourself for the things we do Cause you love us so much our lies become the truth Y'all try so so hard to make things work Finding a way to smile just to keep from showing your hurting (chorus) It's your mind versus your heart versus your soul versus your body Versus our bullshit and our ego and our pride That's why I love the word woman (oh I love, I love) Y'all are so tough y'all put up with so much That's why I love the word woman (oh I love, I love) And y'all so full of trust and besides y'all know us That's why I love the word woman Time and time again y'all let us back in And I love y'all so much I gotta spell it out W-O-M-A-N that's what it's all about, yeah Sometimes I think that we're the reason why y'all be stressing out and smoking cigarettes, mmm yes I do And sometimes I think we're the reasons y'all be snapping off on your kids and having fits, somebody feel me Ladies when it's that time of the month and y'all really don't feel like being bothered And sometimes we take y'all hearts for granted I know y'all gotta ask y'all selves sometimes why do I even put up with it Chorus It's your mind versus your heart versus your soul versus your body Versus our bullshit and our ego and our pride That's why I love the word woman (oh I love, I love) Y'all are so tough y'all put up with so much That's why I love the word woman (oh I love, I love) And y'all so full of trust and besides y'all know us That's why I love the word woman Time and time again y'all let us back in And I love y'all so much I gotta spell it out W-O-M-A-N that's what it's all about, yeah Fellas just swallow your pride for a minute and grab your lady by the hand and sing Baby I'm sorry for the drama that I caused you Y'all are the backbone of every family this much is true I recognize being a woman the things y'all go through And I appreciate every single one of you Baby I promise from this day I will show respect I promise to love y'all yeah With all of my might yeah I'll even burn a candlelight Because we are here cause y'all paid a price And that's why I love (over chorus) The word woman oh Y'all put up with so much And you're so, so full of trust And y'all know us The sole survivors, yeah On the love battlefields Sisters, y'all cook our meals Y'all wash our clothes Y'all are the love seeds planted in our souls When I think about the woman I just get joyful inside Where I just want to break down and cry Listen ladies Like a sister lover cousin mother auntie friend my joy within The reason she says you're so pleasing you're the lock and we're the key Created by the Almighty Forever as the birds and bees We'll love y'all until we stop breathing
