Greg Brown has writeen some songs from a women's point of view..
such as this girl, who has been abused:
"(I) Took off out of high school and joined the army
People said that ain't no place for a girl"

and this one:
"A grown woman, a woman like me, Walks alone in the evenin'
thinkin' 'bout her baby,.....who's now grown up to be almost a man."

such as Every Street in Town, that states that we ALL should feel safe to walk any where we want to go.

"An' when a woman could walk out free in the day and night Without havin' to worry if she's gonna be alright on Every street in town,"
