­i can be a woman

[Verse 1]
He holds the door, sweeps me off the floor
And holds my dress when I'm walking up a staircase
He holds me tight, puts me on his right
When there's cars coming by the byway

[Chorus]
I cook dinner so he dries the dishes
He don't talk down to me, he knows he shouldn't
He won't ever let me sit in the driver's seat
He's a man so I can be a woman

[Verse 2]
He fixes things when I don't know a thing
About a power drill or a hammer
He tucks me in, he's my medicine
He calls me ma'am, damn, he's so well-mannered

[Chorus]
I make these songs while he makes a living
He'd trade the bars for some late night kissing
He gives me his coat when it's below 40 degrees
He's a man so I can be a woman

[Bridge]
Ohh, yeah
Ohh

[Chorus]
I cook dinner so he dries the dishes
He don't talk down to me, he knows he shouldn't
He won't ever let me sit in the driver's seat
He's a man so I can be a woman
