First be a woman

When you're walking down the street

Don't forget your sex appeal

Even tho' you're wearing jeans

It's important to be real

You were born to be yourself

So no matter how you feel

If you want to impress

Be the opposite sex

When he takes you for a ride

Let him open you the door

When he asks you for a dance

Let him lead you to the floor

When he kisses you good night

Making come back for more

You can do all you can

Say I am what I am

But first be a woman

First be a woman

When he takes you out to dine

Don't go rushing to his bed

Give yourself a little time

Make him dream of you instead

And his passion can be like

All the stories that you've read

He can be romeo if you act like juliet

Nowadays it ends too soon

Even tho' it's just begun

You can take him to the moon

He'll leave with the morning sun

Take a lesson from the past

Make a swan and make him run

You can do all you can

Say I am what I am

But first be a woman

First be a woman

(Instrumental)

You can't be a quarterback

He can't wear a sexy dress

You cannot be superman

And he's not a shy princess

So why try to be alike

When it's only self defense?

You've got grace, he's got style

And together you'll rhyme

So remember to be true

To the legend that you are

All the feminine in you

Has worked miracles so far

So head up high and don't be shy

You can reach for any star

You can do all you can

Say I am what I am

But first be a woman

First be a woman (2x)

Be a woman

First be a woman (3x)
