"I'm A Woman"

Well I can wash out forty four pairs of socks
And have 'em on the line
You know I can starch and iron two dozen shirts
'Fore 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 skillet, do my shopping, and be back before it melts in the pan

Cause I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
Let me tell ya again
I'm a woman

Well I can rub and scrub till 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 till 6
And start all over again

Cause I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
Let me tell ya again
I'm a woman
W-O-M-A-N
