Melissa Etheridge, Paula Cole - Watch the Woman's Hands lyrics

Watch the woman's hands as
She cultivates the land
As she plants the seed as she's on her knees

Watch her fingers smile as she
Holds the little child
As she holds him, as she holds him

Watch the woman's hands as she
Holds the children back
From the danger, from the danger
Watch her big fight to keep
The family tight together, together

Oh we need her oh we need her
Oh we need her oh we need her
Oh we need her oh we need her
Oh wе need her oh we need her

Watch thе woman's hands as she
Talks to the man
As he talks down to her, as he tells her
He doesn't understand
He does not see the fisted hands
Clenching tightly, angrily

Oh we need her oh we need her
Oh we need her oh we need her
Oh we need her oh we need her
Oh we need her oh we need
Oh we need her oh watch the woman's hands
Watch the, watch the woman's hands
Watch the woman's hands
