Woman's Gotta Have It is the second album by Cornershop, released in 1995.

The album's style is a blend of indie rock with Indian music. Reviewing the album on AllMusic, Denise Sullivan called the style "Hindi-Pop".

The opening track 6am Jullandar Shere, sung in Punjabi, as well as Wog were released as singles. A video for the former was sometimes played on MTV Europe's alternative music slots.

The song My Dancing Days Are Done is performed in French (mes jours de bal perdus) by the guest singers Parsley and Sasha Andres.
