[Verse 1] Well I can wash out forty four pairs of socks And have them on the line You know I can starch and iron two dozen shirts Before you can count from one to nine I can slip up a great big dip up of lard from a drippings can Throw it in the sk**et, do my shopping, and be back before it melts in The pan [Chorus] Because I'm a woman W-O-M-A-N Let me tell you again I'm a woman W-O-M-A-N [Verse 2] Well I can rub and scrub until this house shines just like a dime Feed the baby Grease the car Powder my nose at the same time You know I can get all dressed up Go out swinging with the M-A-N
Jump in bed at five Sleep until 6 And start all over again [Chorus] [Verse 3] Well now if you come to me sick, you know that I'm going to make you well And if you come to me all hexed up, you know I'm going to break the spell And if you come to me hungry, you know I'll feed you full of my grits And if it's loving you want, I can kiss you and give you the shivering fits [Chorus] [Bridge] Well, I got a twenty dollar gold fee that says there's nothing that I can't do Well, I can make a dress out of feeding sacks and I can make a man out of you [Chorus] [Outro] I'm a woman [x4]
