Lyrics
The Women In My Life
Roy Hurd
Uncle Tommy taught me how to pray
My brothers taught me how to fight and when to walk away
Daddy taught me to be thankful for the fruits of this great land
And he told me I could build my world with two hard workin hands
Chorus:
But the women in my life
Played a softer part
With gentle hands they reached right in
And touched my heart
And for the love they gave me
I’m a better man
Thanks to the women in my life
Boys are taught to be tough
And a man’s not a man unless he’s rugged and rough
Guard those feelings no but don’t be shy
No matter how much it hurts don’t ever cry
Repeat Chorus:
Oh thanks to the women in my life
My mother my sisters my daughter and my wife
With gentle hands they reached right in
And touched my heart
And for the love they gave me
I’m a better man
Thanks to the women in my life
My mother my sisters my daughter and my wife
Thanks to the women in my life
