SHAKING THE TREE

We are shaking the tree (x2)
Waiting your time, dreaming of a better life
Waiting your time, you're more than just a wife
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, know you are nobody's slave
Find your sisters and brothers 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 (x2)

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

And you 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....
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree
Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree

Peter Gabriel

[ from 1989 12" remix ]
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 the decision that you can be who you can be
You can be
Tasting the fruit come to the Liberty Tree
It's your day - a woman's day
It's your day - a woman's day
