A Woman’s Touch

[KATIE, spoken]
Well, I guess that does it

[CALAMITY, spoken]
Katie, this cabin o' mine was an old rat's nest till you got working on' it! Now it's real purty - it sure is

[KATIE, spoken]
Oh, nothing to it - just a can of paint, a few frills, and a woman's touch!

[KATIE]
A woman's touch!

[CALAMITY]
A woman's touch!

[KATIE]
The magic of Aladdin couldn't do as much
She's a wizard
She's a champ

[CALAMITY]
And she doesn't need a lamp

[KATIE]
A woman's touch
Can weave a spell
The kind of hocus-pocus that she does so well

[CALAMITY]
With the magic of a broom
She can mesmerize a room

[KATIE]
With a whisk-whisk here
And a whisk-whisk there
And a dustpan for the cinders

[CALAMITY]
With a rub-rub here
And a rub-rub there
She can polish up the winders
Then presto, change-o, suddenly
The sun comes peeping through

[KATIE]
And what does Mister Sunshine say to you?

[CALAMITY]
"How-di-do!"

[KATIE]
It makes you blink
To stop and think
A woman and a whisk-broom can accomplish so darn much

[KATIE & CALAMITY]
So never underestimate a woman's touch!

[CALAMITY]
A woman's touch
Can quickly fill
The empty flower-boxes on a winder-sill

[KATIE]
One smile from her, and "Zoom!"
Little buds begin to bloom
A touch of paint

[CALAMITY]
A magic nail

[KATIE & CALAMITY]
Can turn a kitchen chair into a Chippendale

[CALAMITY]
Even make a lamp appear
Like a crystal chandelier

[KATIE]
With a tack-tack here
And a tack-tack there
And a hand around a hammer
With a mop-mop here
And a mop-mop there
You can give a cabin glimmer

[Instrumental]

[CALAMITY, spoken]
Hey-what's this? Why-it's a pitcher of you!

[KATIE, spoken]
Not a very good one... is it?

[CALAMITY]
With a photograph

[KATIE]
On the mantelpiece?

[CALAMITY]
Any room looks kinda homey

[KATIE]
You're a real good pal

[CALAMITY]
You're a real nice gal

[KATIE]
Better wait until you know me

[CALAMITY]
Since you bin diggin' in with me
This cabin that I knew
Has become an elegant mansion made for two
Me and you!

[KATIE]
The pies and cakes
A woman bakes
Can make a feller tell her
That he loves her very much

[KATIE & CALAMITY]
So never underestimate a woman's touch
No, never underestimate a woman's touch!
