Maybe She's Human Songtext
von Kathy Mattea

She gets up an hour
Before she really wants to
Gets a half day′s work done
Before the day begins

She makes a list of everything
That everybody needs from her
And all that she did yesterday
Today she'll do again

She goes off to her job, the school
The bank and then the store
Then you′re surprised 'cause she broke down
As you walked in the door


Maybe she's human
Maybe she′s got troubles to
Maybe she could stand to get away
Maybe she needs something new
Or maybe all she needs is someone
Just to see her point of view, maybe that′s you

After working late today
She brings in bags of groceries
Bandages a skinned-up knee
As the chicken starts to fry

She drops a glass, the baby cries, the phone rings
That's when you walk in
Unloading all your problems
And the worries on your mind

When you mention it′s your boys' night out
She tears you into shreds
You just can′t quite figure out
Why she gets all upset


Maybe she's human
Maybe she′s got troubles to
Maybe she could stand to get away
Maybe she needs something new
Or maybe all she needs is someone
Just to see her point of view, maybe that's you
