			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.<br />
I&#8217;m not cute or built to suit a fashion model&#8217;s size<br />
But when I start to tell them,<br />
They think I&#8217;m telling lies.<br />
<span id="more-68"></span><br />
I say,<br />
It&#8217;s in the reach of my arms<br />
The span of my hips,<br />
The stride of my step,<br />
The curl of my lips.<br />
I&#8217;m a woman<br />
Phenomenally.<br />
Phenomenal woman,<br />
That&#8217;s me.</p>
<p>I walk into a room<br />
Just as cool as you please,<br />
And to a man,<br />
The fellows stand or<br />
Fall down on their knees.<br />
Then they swarm around me,<br />
A hive of honey bees.<br />
I say,<br />
It&#8217;s the fire in my eyes,<br />
And the flash of my teeth,<br />
The swing in my waist,<br />
And the joy in my feet.<br />
I&#8217;m a woman<br />
Phenomenally.<br />
Phenomenal woman,<br />
That&#8217;s me.</p>
<p>Men themselves have wondered<br />
What they see in me.<br />
They try so much<br />
But they can&#8217;t touch<br />
My inner mystery.<br />
When I try to show them<br />
They say they still can&#8217;t see.<br />
I say,<br />
It&#8217;s in the arch of my back,<br />
The sun of my smile,<br />
The ride of my breasts,<br />
The grace of my style.<br />
I&#8217;m a woman</p>
<p>Phenomenally.<br />
Phenomenal woman,<br />
That&#8217;s me.</p>
<p>Now you understand<br />
Just why my head&#8217;s not bowed.<br />
I don&#8217;t shout or jump about<br />
Or have to talk real loud.<br />
When you see me passing<br />
It ought to make you proud.<br />
I say,<br />
It&#8217;s in the click of my heels,<br />
The bend of my hair,<br />
the palm of my hand,<br />
The need of my care,<br />
&#8216;Cause I&#8217;m a woman<br />
Phenomenally.<br />
Phenomenal woman,<br />
That&#8217;s me.</p>
