Pretty women wonder
Where my secret lies
I'm not cute or built to suit
A model's fashion size.
But when I start to tell them
They think I'm telling lies.
I say...
It's in the reach of my arms...
The span of my hips...
The stride of my steps...
The curl of my lips.
I'm a woman.
Phenomenally...
Phenomenal woman...
That's me!
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me...
A hive of honeybees.
I say...
It's the fire in my eyes...
And the flash of my teeth...
The swing of my waist..
And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman...
Phenomenally...
Phenomenal Woman...
That's me!
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch...
They say they still can't see.
I say...
It's in the arch of my back...
The sun of my smile...
The ride of my breasts...
The grace of my style.
I'm a woman...
Phenomenally...
Phenomenal woman...
That's me!
Now you understand
Just why my head's not bowed...
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud...
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say...
It's in the click of my heels...
The bend of my hair...
The palm of my hand...
The need for my care...
'Cause I'm a woman...
Phenomenally...
Phenomenal woman...
That's me!
