Veronica Swift - How Lovely to Be a Woman

How lovely to be a woman, the wait was well worth while
How lovely to wear mascara and smile a woman's smile
How lovely to have a figure that is round instead of flat
Whenever you hear boys whistle, you're what they're whistling at

How wonderful to feel the way a woman feels
It gives you such a glow just to know you're wearing lipstick and heels

How lovely to be a woman, and change from boys to men
To go to a fancy nightclub and stay out after ten
How lovely to be all grown-up and free
Life's lovely when you're a woman like me
Like me, like me

Oh, how lovely to be a woman, the wait was well worth while
How lovely to wear mascara and smile a woman's smile
How lovely to have a figure that is round instead of flat
Whenever you hear boys whistle, you're what they're whistling at

It's wonderful to know the things a woman knows
How marvelous to wait for a date in simply beautiful clothes

How Lovely to be a woman, and have one job to do
To pick out a boy and train him, and then when you are through
You've made him the man you want him to be
How lovely to be a woman like me
