I Am Just a Woman...

I can’t fly a jet plane or bulldog a steer But I can cuddle a child and calm his fear I have never flown to Paris in the Spring But I have proudly worn his wedding ring Never understood physics or trigonometry But I know a lot about Texas history Can’t say I have been around a NASCAR track I have stood by my word and never looked back I sing off key sometimes, I know Singing praises to Him that I love so I am just a woman... Not a beauty queen Riding in a white limousine A woman who is middle aged Who lives alone and is not afraid One who has taught school over twenty years Lived my life with much laughter and tears Borne a child and lost another Been little sister to my sis and brothers Believes in God and trusts in Him Doesn’t worry about being slim and trim One you can always count on being around To cheer you up when you're feeling down Willing to share your heavy load Walk that extra mile down the road I am just a woman... So if I never see the Taj Mahal In this life, I have had a ball I’ll never have any extra money But I have a man who calls me honey Never visit the Pope in Rome But I have a wonderful place to call home Won’t be asked to confer with the president But in America, I am a happy resident I will never have fortune or fame But I can still be proud of my name
