Women of the World

Mahotella Queens

Give our children life we watch them grow
What the future holds we just don’t know
We hear it on the radio
We see it on the screen
The turmoil in this world is just like
Living in a dream

Tell us who has the power behind the throne
No man wants to live his life alone
Then why do we allow the strife
To jeopardize this gracious life
We need to make our menfolk understand

And we're the women of the world and we’ll unite
The tenderness will overcome the fight
Give our children peace and love
Joy and harmony
We the women of the world

Imagine having nothing to report
If there was not a single battle fought
No one dropped a bomb and not an angry word was said
And no one cried cos not a single soul was dead

And we're the women of the world and we are strong
Here to stay
To tell that we belong
Give our children peace and love
Joy and harmony
We the women of the world

And we're the women of the world and we’ll unite
The tenderness will overcome the fight
Give our children peace and love
Joy and harmony
We the women of the world

Yeah we the women of the world
