Rett Madison describes her song as the following:
“God is a Woman reflects on my experience accepting and celebrating my queerness after being raised in a predominately Catholic small town in West Virginia.”
[Verse 1]
She kissed me while the moon was sinking down
In that holy hour, I felt an angel's lips against my mouth
She kissed while my fear of God was alive
And I cried the rosary behind closed eyes
[Verse 2]
She kissed my shaking knees in the motel
I wondered if the ground would split right now
Would I be swallowed down to hell
She kissed my purple knees in the motel
Bruises earned by begging, praying
I'd wake up as someone else
[Pre-Chorus]
I wish I had known back then
That no love is a sin
[Chorus]
I bet God's a woman
And she fucks a woman just as divine
I bet God's a dyke
And she made rainbows to give us a sign
[Verse 3]
I tried religion on like old blue jeans
I fit my life to their truth until I burst at the seams
And maybe that's why wine was on my breath
Like I was taking communion before we had sex
[Pre-Chorus]
I forgot their commandments
But damn the guilt does stick
[Chorus]
I bet God's a woman
And she fucks a woman just as divine
I bet God's a dyke
And she made rainbows to give us a sign
[Outro]
I know
I know-ow-ow-ow-ow
I know
I know
