Strong Black Woman

A Strong Black Woman Is someone who can hold her own, She's never weak Always strong. She's very independent Don't need a man, On her own two feet She can stand. She keeps her head up high Never looking down, She's very outspoken Holds her ground. She has a college education Very smart, She knew what she wanted From the start. Strong Black Woman Don't need a man to have her back, Always putting up with They bull crap slack. Strong Black Woman Yeah she may have an attitude, She may come off cocky Sometimes a little rude. She may have high expectations May be commanding, She may be a little bossy A little demanding. Her words may be harsh She may act like she don't care, But when you need her She'll always be there. Strong Black Woman Yeah you got to give her respect, Don't disrespect Or she'll put you in check. Strong Black Woman Takes care of her family, Don't go clubbin Home is where she wants to be. She keeps a good job She'll never be in the cold, Strong Black Woman A hell of a title to hold.
