Shaking The Tree

Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree Waiting your time, dreaming of a better life Waiting your time, you're more than just a wife You don't want to do what your mother has done She has done This is your life, this new life has begun It's your day - a woman's day It's your day - a woman's day Turning the tide, you are on the incoming wave Turning the tide, you know you are nobody's slave [ 1989 version - Find your Brothers and sisters ] [ 1990 version - Find your sisters and brothers ] Who can hear all the truth in what you say They can support you when you're on your way It's your day - a woman's day It's your day - a woman's day Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree [ extra lyrics from 1989 12" remix ] There's nothing to gain when there's nothing to be lost There's nothing to gain if you stay behind and count the cost Make the decision that you can be who you can be You can be Tasting the fruit come to the Liberty Tree It's your day - a woman's day It's your day - a woman's day [ end of extra lyrics from 12" remix ] Changing your ways, changing those surrounding you Changing your ways, more than any man can do Open your heart, show him the anger and pain, so you heal Maybe he's looking for his womanly side, let him feel You had to be so strong And you do nothing wrong Nothing wrong at all We're gonna to break it down We have to shake it down Shake it all around Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree Souma Yergon, Sou Nou Yergon, We are shakin' the tree ...
