Album: Bette Midler Sings the Peggy Lee Songbook
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…
Let me tell ya again
I’m a woman…
Well I can rub and scrub
'til 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 'til 6
And start all over again
'Cause I’m a woman…
Let me tell ya again
I’m a woman…
Well now if you come to me sick
You know that I’m gonna make you well
And if you come to me all hexed up You know I’m gonna break the spell
And if you come to me hungry
You know I’ll feed ya full of my grits
And if it’s loving you want
I can kiss you and give you the shivering fits
'Cause I’m a woman…
I’ll say it again
I’m a woman…
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
'Cause I’m a woman…
I’ll say it again
I’m a woman…
I’m a woman
I’m a woman
I’m a woman
Yeah, I’m a woman
