It takes a woman all powdered and pink
To joyously clean out the drain in the sink
And it takes an angel with long golden lashes
And soft dresden fingers
For dumping the ashes
Yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
Cornelius, Barnaby, & 2 customers:
O yes it takes a woman
A fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things in life

The frail young maiden who’s constantly there
For washing and blueing and shoeing the mare
And it takes a female for setting the table
And weaving the Guernsey
And cleaning the stable

O yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
O yes it takes a woman
A fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things in life

And so she’ll work until infinity
Three cheers for femininity
God bless femininity

And in the winter she’ll shovel the ice
And lovingly set out the traps for the mice
She’s a joy and treasure for practically speaking
To whom can you turn when the plumbing is leaking?

To That dainty woman
That fragile woman
That sweetheart, that mistress, that wife
That womanly wife

O yes it takes a woman

A husky woman

To bring you the sweet things in life!

O Yes it takes a woman
A dainty woman
A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
O yes it takes a woman, a fragile woman
To bring you the sweet things in life.
