song lyrics Giving Something Up lyrics 76 when a man told his wife ?Baby doll, sorry I can t stay? Left with 5 kids she was forced to become Superwoman And go earn some pay A college educated girl Washing dishes in a man s world Now what good is a degree When you got mouths to feed, yeah She is that girl maybe you know Maybe you ve been, maybe you are today Insert your year where the year is If to this story you can relate (Giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We always giving something We re always giving something up 97, a mother has no choice but to go find work And leave her kids alone Far from heaven so she s gone 5 days out the week To bring a piece home Her man is off somewhere up some dress Bringin her back some other woman s sickness Her baby girl is cryin , mama please When you re gone the neighbor s chasing me Around the world from Pakistan Down to Soweto back to New York City Insert your year where the year is If to this story you can relate (Giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We always giving something We re always giving something up Givin , tryin , self-relying Feedin , teachin , always reachin Dreamin , losin , being abused and Dyin , cryin , sacrificin Hurtin , being told we re worthless Birthin , buried alive in the earth and Hopin , mendin spirits broken Smilin and somehow survivin (Giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up (We are giving something up) We re always giving something up song lyrics
