Feeling Like A Woman Barbara Mandrell When you put me down the word got Around and it wasn't long until I found Every man that came around had one thing on his mind They looked at me like so much dirt which only added to the hurt I never knew the world was so unkind I went to work in a tavern the hours were long and the pay was short And I waited hoping you'd walk through the door In just one night I overheard more sly remarks and dirty words Than I'd ever heard in my whole life before And if I ever needed someone it was then If not to love me to least have been my friend That's when he came to me and picked me up from where you let me fall And had me right back feeling like a woman in no time at all And when I really needed someone where were you Who were you holding when my world was falling through He stood beside me when you left me standing back against the wall And had me right back feeling like a woman Had me right back feeling like a woman
