I'm A Woman

I can wash out forty-four pairs of socks
And have 'em hangin' out on the line
I can starch and iron two dozen shirts
Before you can count from one to nine
I can scoop up a great big dipper full of lard
From the drippings can
Throw it in the skillet, go out and do my shopping
Be back before it melts in the pan

'Cause I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
I'll say it again

I can rub and scrub this old house
'Til it's shining like a dime
Feed the baby, grease the car
And powder my nose at the same time
Get all dressed up and go swinging 'til 4 AM and then
Lay down at 5, jump up at 6
And start all over again

'Cause I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
I'll say it again

If you come to me hungry
You know I'm gonna fill you full of grits
If it's loving you like
I'll kiss you and give you the shivering fits

'Cause I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
I'll say it again

I got a twenty dollar gold piece
Says there's nothing I can't do
I can make a dress out of a feed bag
And I can make a man out of you

'Cause I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
I'll say it again
'Cause I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N

W-O-M-A-N
Woman, woman
