Who says a woman ain't strong?
My friend, you're wrong
She's stronger than strong
Listen here what I tell you 'bout Mary Lou Thomas
Mary Lou Thomas, daughter of heartache
But she's got what it takes
To keep her keepin' on
Mary Lou Thomas, mother of affection
In this world with no protection
She's stronger than strong
She gave her love to a city slickin' man
Who moved her to a metro town
He gave her three babies and memories
Then put her lovin' down
Livin' in a man's world all alone
She stands proud on her feet
How she manages to make ends meet
I'm talkin' 'bout Mary Lou Thomas, daughter of heartache
But she's got what it takes
To keep her keepin' on
Mary Lou Thomas, mother of affection
In this world with no protection
She's stronger than strong
Dirty old men can't steal her mind
So they try to put the woman down
She works two jobs for half my pay
But it doesn't seem to get her down
She's a mother, she's a father, she's the sole provider
But her kids stay nice and clean
How she does it is a mystery to me
Talkin' 'bout Mary Lou Thomas, daughter of heartache
But she's got what it takes
To keep her keepin' on
Mary Lou Thomas, mother of affection
In this world with no protection
She's stronger than strong
ย
Oh, that Mary Lou Thomas
Who says a woman ain't strong?
You're wrong
She's stronger than strong
You hear me what I say?
A woman is stronger than strong
Oh, you come a long way, baby
With a little bitty way to go
Walk that walk
Go on, girl, talk that talk
Woo, once you couldn't vote
But look at her now
She can vote and smoke
Oh, talkin' 'bout Mary Lou Thomas
ย
Come on, Mary Lou
ย
How she manages to make ends meet
Mary Lou Thomas, daughter of heartache
But she's got what it takes
To keep her keepin' on
Keep on keepin' on
Mary Thomas, mother of affection
In this world with no protection
She's stronger than strong
Can't go wrong
Mary Lou Thomas, daughter of heartache
But she's got what it takes
To keep her keepin' on
Mary Lou, Mary Lou Thomas, mother of affection
In this world with no protection
She's stronger than strong
Fellas, we can't keep her down
Let the girl go and do her thing
Walk your walk, Mary Lou
Talk your talk
Mary Lou, talkin' 'bout Mary Lou Thomas
Come on, y'all
