How To Be A Lady

So, if you want to be a lady
Well then, have a look at me
Folks line up for days
Just to have a look-see
Take it from me
What you see is a lady indeed
If you want to be a lady
Well then, have a look at me

Paint your lips a touch too wide
Hide secrets in your mouth
Stand on corners for too long
Just to have a look-see
Hang your purse on your left
Your lover’s photo turn it right
If you want to meet a lady
Well then, offer her a ride

All these men are looking
Looking at me
Giving me the once over
With a big old look-see

Carry the world by its knees
Keep the porch-light burning bright
You sell yourself for nothing less than
One grandstanding night
If take it from me
What you'll be is a lady indeed
If you want to be a lady
Well then, have a look at me
