Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips,The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips. I'm a woman
Phenomenally.Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

I walk into a room. Just as cool as you please,
And to a man,The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees. Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes, And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist, And the joy in my feet.
I'm a woman Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me. They try so much
But they can't touch My inner mystery.
When I try to show them They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back, The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts, The grace of my style.
I'm a woman Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.

Now you understand Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair, the palm of my hand,
The need of my care,cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
