"Woman Down" lyrics

"Woman Down"

Woman down, down on her luck
There goes the man, there goes the plan, there goes the truck
Woman down, down to one prayer
God get me through it for the two asleep upstairs
She can't breathe, but she ain't dyin'
And there ain't no time for cryin'
There's a phoenix down inside when
Her feet are to the fire

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Been to hell and back, up against the wall, then
Gets knocked down but ain't afraid of crawlin'
Who's your money on, who's your money on?
She can make a mountain move
And do it in her high heeled shoes
If she ain't back up yet, just stick around
You can't keep a woman down
A woman down

A woman down don't stay down long
Can't come unglued, yeah, she's got too much goin' on
If she's out of land, she'll find a boat
Can't find a hand, she'll find some rope
All out of heart, she'll find some hope
Where you swear it can't be found

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Been to hell and back, up against the wall, then
Gets knocked down but ain't afraid of crawlin'
Who's your money on, who's your money on?
She can make a mountain move
And do it in her high heeled shoes
If she ain't back up yet, just stick around
You can't keep a woman down
A woman down, a woman down

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Who you gonna call on when the Devil's callin'?
Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Who you gonna call on when the Devil's callin'?

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Been to hell and back, up against the wall, then
Gets knocked down but ain't afraid of crawlin'
Who's your money on, who's your money on?
She can make a mountain move
And do it in her high heeled shoes
If she ain't back up yet, just stick around
You can't keep a woman down

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
A woman down
Who you gonna call on when the Devil's callin'?
A woman down
Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
A woman down
Who you gonna call on when the Devil's callin'?

Carly Pearce told Apple Music the following about "Woman Down", "No matter what you've gone through, what you face, what you deal with in any capacity, you are resilient. And the women in my life are super resilient, so I wanted to sing it for them."
When Carly Pearce first heard a demo of this song, she thought about her mother. Carly later explained in an interview for StageRightSecrets, "I genuinely wanted to sing this song for her and for any woman that just experienced anything in life that's hard. [...] For any woman that's been through it: you are resilient and you are a fighter."
