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.

I don't really want to meet anyone, I'm only on here to keep in touch with people I already know.
I thought I'd been a lot of places until I saw it like this, it just comfirms that there is so much left for me to see.
Country. I love country music. I've been told that this too makes me a dork. I don't care, I like what I like. Other than that I'll listen to anything that doesn't give me a headache....i.e. screaming music.
Yes, I love typical girly cheesey movies......I can't help it, I'm a girl and this is the way I am. Some of my favorites are How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days, Mean Girls, Sweet Home Alabama, The Notebook, Pride and Prejudice, Love Actually....you get the idea.
I don't watch a lot of TV, but I do religiously watch Gilmore Girls and Grey's Anatomy. If I'm really bored and out of good books, I flip on TLC.
I LOVE to read, it's pretty much my favorite thing to do. I read approximately 1.5 books per week, they love me at Barnes and Noble. I mostly read Chick Lit.
My Family.
-My mother who helps to educate the troubled youth that is our future.
-My father who risks his life to save others .
-My brothers who inlisted in the US Navy during a time of war to defend a country they believe in.
