Hello, Dolly! movie - It Takes a Woman lyrics

rate me

<br>

Vandergelder<br>

It takes a woman all powdered and pink<br>

To joyously clean out the drain in the sink<br>

And it takes an angel with long golden lashes<br>

And soft dresden fingers<br>

For dumping the ashes<br>

<br>

Cornelius, Barnaby, & 2 customers<br>

Yes it takes a woman<br>

A dainty woman<br>

A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife<br>

O yes it takes a woman<br>

A fragile woman<br>

To bring you the sweet things in life<br>

<br>

Vandergelder<br>

The frail young maiden who's constantly there<br>

For washing and blueing and shoeing the mare<br>

And it takes a female for setting the table<br>

And weaving the Guernsey<br>

And cleaning the stable<br>

<br>

All<br>

O yes it takes a woman<br>

A dainty woman<br>

A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife<br>

O yes it takes a woman<br>

A fragile woman<br>

To bring you the sweet things in life<br>

And so she'll work until infinity<br>

Three cheers for femininity<br>

Rah Rah Rah...Rah Rah Rah<br>

F. E. M. - I. T. Y<br>

<br>

Vandergelder<br>

F. E. M. I. T. Y?<br>

Get out of here!<br>

And in the winter she'll shovel the ice<br>

And lovingly set out the traps for the mice<br>

She's a joy and treasure for practically speaking<br>

To whom can you turn when the plumbing is leaking?<br>

<br>

Vandergelder, Cornelius, & Barnaby<br>

To That dainty woman<br>

That fragile woman<br>

That sweetheart, that mistress, that wife<br>

O yes it takes a woman<br>

<br>

Vandergelder<br>

A husky woman<br>

Vandergelder, Cornelius, & Barnaby<br>

To bring you the sweet things in life!<br>

<br>

All<br>

O Yes it takes a woman<br>

A dainty woman<br>

A sweetheart, a mistress, a wife<br>

O yes it takes a woman, a fragile woman<br>

To bring you the sweet things in life.<br>
