It Takes a Man to Teach a Woman How to Love Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A little girl has a mama
That's where she gets all her charm
And a little girl has a papa
To keep her safe from harm, yeah
And maybe an older sister
To show her some grownup tricks
And a friend or two along the way
To share some work and then some play
And get out and get her some kicks, but

[Chorus]
It takes a man to teach a woman how to love (To teach a woman)
It takes a man, a real live man, and plenty of (Plenty of)
Life can give you what it's got, and then you think you got a lot
You ain't got nothin' 'til you got yourself a man
It takes a man to teach a woman how to live (To teach a woman)
It takes a man to make a woman want to give (Want to give)
Life is living something else, life is giving something good
But you ain't livin' 'til you're giving to some man

[Verse 2]
It might be you could get a fortune teller
To help you plan your life ahead
But until a man is that plan and you can say "This is my man"
Honey your future is dead

[Chorus]
It takes a man to teach a woman how to love (To teach a woman)
It takes a man to teach a woman how to love (How to love)
Life can give you what it's got, and then you think you got a lot
You ain't got nothin' 'til you got yourself a man
It takes a man to teach a woman how to give (To teach a woman)
It takes a man to teach a woman how to give (How to give)
Life is give and some you get, life is living, soon you'll get
But you ain't livin' 'til you're giving to some man
It takes a man to teach a woman how to love (To teach a woman)
It takes a man to teach a woman how to love (How to love)
Life can give you what it's got, and then you think you got a lot
You ain't got nothin' 'til you got yourself a man
It takes a man to teach a woman how to love
