Oh woman I'm your servant I don't know anything but I'm ready to learn Oh woman I'm starving for your approval Be kind to me The big city calls and your daughters are smiling In the windows of apartment buildings I bet I look about as small as I feel Thank you Jesus, can I have another And another Oh thank you Lord But if it pleases thee to have them Banging down the door Couldst thou let 'em know what they're in for Ain't good for you or me or them Amen Oh woman I'm your servant Asking for the right to look you in the eye Oh woman I'm dying for you to notice How far I've come I'm moving downtown And your daughters are walking by me I believe they're still deciding If they like having me around If they like having me around I need to know why Goodwill's coming by to collect a box I filled with things I hate about myself Things I liked before I got here Then I'll pick her up We'll do anything she wants Do anything they want Do anything you want Oh woman I don't care Lord I'd be in your debt If you'd help me forget That heaven is mine for trying 'Cause lord I don't know why You'd give me so much life All to live resigned to dying
