Now I'm a Woman Lyrics

I've been hurt in love three times
Once as a baby
Then as a lady
Now I'm a woman
As I child I loved so deep
I remember crying myself to sleep
When Daddy left us all alone

To make it by ourself
My Momma didn't have no help

Momma gave me any love but
Just as sure as heavens above
It left an ugly scar
On a young and innocent heart

Oh such a baby
Bound to be a lady

Chorus
I've been hurt in love three times
Once as a baby
Then as a lady
Now I'm a woman
Time passed by went to school
I met a guy I thought was made
Especially for me

Oh how I loved him
I thought the whole world of him

Why he broke my heart
I guess I'll never know
I just didn't seem
To fit into his plans

Oh such a lady
My Momma's little baby
Chorus
I've been hurt in love three times
Once as a baby
Then as a lady
Now I'm a woman

Bridge
Now that I am old enough,
I'll understand what good has done
But I'll be lucky if I can find one true love

In my lifetime
Lord I'll be doing just fine

Chorus
I've been hurt in love three times
Once as a baby
Then as a lady
Now I'm a woman
