You can bend but never break me: The Helen Reddy Love Thread

You can bend but never break me
'cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
'cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul

er, I am woman,
here me roar,
in numbers too big to ignore!

[jimnysf]

I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an' pretend
'cause I've heard it all before
And I've been down there on the floor
No one's ever gonna keep me down again

CHORUS
Oh yes I am wise
But it's wisdom born of pain
Yes, I've paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman

Don't tell me not to fly, I've simply got to.
If someone takes a spill, it's me and not you.
Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade?

[jimnysf]

Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade!

Now...

I am woman watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my lovin' arms across the land
But I'm still an embryo
With a long long way to go
Until I make my brother understand

I am man, hear me roar,
In numbers too big to ignore,
And I'm way too hungry to settle for chick food!

'Cause my stomach's starting to growl,
And I'm going on the prowl,
For a Texas Double Whopper!

"Man that's good!"

Oh, yes, I'm a guy!
I'll admit I've been fed quiche!
Wave tofu bye-bye!
Now it's for Whopper beef I reach.

I will eat this meat
(Eat this meat)
'Till my innie turns into an outie!

I am starved!
I am incorrigible!
And I'm eating a burger beef bacon jalapeno good thing down!

(Yeah!)

I am hungry!
(I am hungry)
I am incorrigible!

I AM MAN!

Big ole ruby red dress wanders round the town
Talkin to herself now, sometimes sitten down
Don't you get too close now, ruby runs away
Poor ole ruby red dress born on a sorry day
I can hear her say....

I was listening to "Lite FM Classic HD2" and they played "I am Woman" which got me thinking of Helen....

I can hear her say

CHORUS:

Leave me alone, won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone now, leave me alone
Leave me alone, please leave me alone, yes leave me
Leave me alone won't you leave me alone
Please leave me alone, no leave me alone
Leave me alone, just leave me alone, oh leave me

Big ole ruby red dress, everybody laughs
Say she's got no future and never made no past
Something hurt that ruby, shomething she can't bear
Ya look at her real close now, you see a little tear
When she says now

CHORUS

Some folks say some farm boy up from Tennessee
Taught it all to Ruby, then just let her be
Her daddy tried to hide it, tried to keep things cool
But something happened to Ruby, she broke down to a fool
who just said now

CHORUS

There's room for everyone in this world,
stand back and make some room.
Spread out while Elliot gets uncurled,
fly on his back and ZOOM!

Rock him, and ride him, and line up beside him,
you'll see how quickly you'll blend
a dragon is just one more stranger
in search of a friend.

Is that her Ruby Red Dress?

[best12bars]

Posted: 9/9/06 at 11:21am

If she clicks her thighs together, she can go home.

Posted: 9/9/06 at 11:22am

My God, it does look like Johnny Depp

[jimnysf]

Posted: 9/9/06 at 11:22am

There's room for everyone in this world,
everyone make some room.
Love given freely can spare this world,
let friendly feelings bloom!

Just give an inch, give a yard, never flinch
when the time comes to offer a hand,
and let's all make sure
we give everyone somewhere to stand,
just the way God planned it,
just the way God planned.
