Shakin' the Tree Lyrics

Waiting your time, dreaming of a better life
Waiting your time, so much more than just a wife
You don't have to do what your mother has done
She has done
This is your life, this new life has begun
It's your day, Woman's Day
It's your day, Woman's Day
Turning the tide you are now on the incoming wave
Turning the tide you know you are nobody's slave
Find the brothers and sisters
who can hear all the truth in what you say
They can support you when you are on your way.
It's your day, Woman's Day
It's your day, Woman's Day
SOUMA YERGON, SOU NOU YERGON, WE ARE SHAKIN' THE TREE
[If we had known, if we only had known] (3 times)
Changing your ways, changing those surrounding youChanging your ways, more than any man can do
Open your heart, show him the anger and pain so you heal
Mabe he's looking for his womanly side, let him feel
You have to be so strong
And you do nothing wrong
Nothing wrong at all
We have to shake it down
We're gonna break it down
All around the town
SOUMA YERGON, SOU NOU YERGON, WE ARE SHAKIN' THE TREE
[If we had known, if we only had known] (7 times)
We are shaking the tree...

Waiting your time, dreaming of a better life
Waiting your time, so much more than just a wife
You don't have 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
Find your brothers and sisters
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
We are shaking 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 a decision that you can be who you can be, you can be
Tasting the fruit, come to the liberly(? ) 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, make 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

We are shaking the tree...
