Shaking The Tree |
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree |
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree |
Waiting your time, dreaming of a better life |
Waiting your time, you’re more than just a wife |
You don’t want to do what your mother has done |
She has done |
This is your life, this new life has begun |
It’s your day — a woman’s day |
It’s your day — a woman’s day |
Turning the tide, you are on the incoming wave |
Turning the tide, you know you are nobody’s slave |
Who can hear all the truth in what you say |
They can support you when you’re on your way |
It’s your day — a woman’s day |
It’s your day — a woman’s day |
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree |
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree |
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree |
There’s nothing to gain when there’s nothing to be lost |
There’s nothing to gain if you stay behind and count the cost |
Make the decision that you can be who you can be |
You can be |
Tasting the fruit come to the Liberty Tree |
It’s your day — a woman’s day |
It’s your day — a woman’s day |
Changing your ways, changing those surrounding you |
Changing your ways, more than any man can do |
Open your heart, show him the anger and pain, so you heal |
Maybe he’s looking for his womanly side, let him feel |
You had to be so strong |
And you do nothing wrong |
Nothing wrong at all |
We’re gonna to break it down |
We have to shake it down |
Shake it all around |
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree |
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree |
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree |
