"Woman As Salvation"
	JACKOPIERCE
	From the Album "Woman As Salvation" & "Decade"


	Talking girlfriend as religion
	Of faith lost and new found
	Of disillusion with the system
	Of justice and redemption
	Of blind faith and let me downs

	[Chorus]
	Talking 'bout my lady of good hope
	Woman as savior, my salvation
	A mighty queen who arrives on the end of town
	To salvage the cause and save my dying nation

	And I was just a citizen of the city
	Making wages in the bakery in the square
	Kneading dough and thinking revolution (revolution)
	When my lady, she appeared

	Conversion on the spot to her
	Woman as religion - a time for holy war
	I raised my fist above my head and to her I swore
	My allegiance

	[Chorus]

	There was revolution in the streets,
	Barricades at the parliament house and
	Strong victories and hard defeats, in the
	Battle to win my own crown, and save, 
	My dying nation, talking 'bout woman as salvation

	[Chorus]
