She's a socialite and a decent housewife and she makes a mean lasagna
So when the mechanic, said “Lady don't panic, I would never con ya”
She said “I know I don't need my engine rebuilt, just check the oil and change the belt,
Honey, I know you thought you saw me coming”
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

Chorus
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
Standing up to the test, wearing a party dress
Sometimes looks can be deceiving when you're quietly over-achieving
Yeah sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

He said I should repent for the money I spent on shoes and bags and jewelry
I said “To hell with that, my hard working ass ain't gonna sit before a jury”
“After work I cook and clean it's true, but if I held my breath I'd die waiting for you to cut the grass that's a growin' an fix the tap in the kitchen that needs a plummmin'
Yes, sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

Chorus
Sometimes It takes balls to be a woman
Standing up to the test, wearing a party dress
Sometimes looks can be deceiving when you're quietly over-achieving
Yeah sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
Standing up to the test wearing a party dress
Sometimes looks can be deceiving when you're quietly over-achieving
Yeah sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
Look at Dolly and Loretta, they still live it to the letter
Sometimes it takes balls to be, big big big big balls to be
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
