For Kristy. One day while at work, she was feeling poorly. I told her to go home, but she kept insisting that she had too much to do. I told her she was stubborn, and needed to have a song written about her to that effect. This is the result. --- [C] She's a good friend of mine. / We laugh all the time. [G] Folks know she is so kind, / And so do I. Perfect in many ways. / Her smile lights cloudy days. [C] The folks all give her praise, / And so do I. [G] But she's a stubborn woman. / She gets it in her head. / She's gonna do what she is gonna do. [C] A stubborn woman. / It's hard to turn her 'round. / She's gonna do what she is gonna do. She'll stand up for you. / Hardship she'll help you through. She'll be one of the crew / And give her all. But if she needs some rest / Or she's not feeling her best She won't leave on request / She'll give her all. 'Cause she's a stubborn woman. / She gets it in her head. / She's gonna do what she is gonna do. A stubborn woman. / It's hard to turn her 'round. / She's gonna do what she is gonna do. A stubborn woman. / She won't give up control. / She thinks she's got to do what must be done. A stubborn woman. / She's got to get it done. / She's gonna do what she thinks must be done.
