[Chorus]
D A
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
A
Standin' up to a test. While wearin' a party dress
G D G
Sometimes looks can be deceivin', while you're quietly over achievin'
D A D
Oh sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
[Verse]
D
She's a socialite, a decent housewife
A
And she makes a mean lasagna
So when the mechanic said now lady don't panic
D
But this one's gonna cost ya'
She said I know I don't need my engine rebuilt
G
So just check the tires and change the belts
A
Honey I know you thought you saw me comin'
D
But sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
[Chorus]
D A
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
A
Standin' up to a test. While wearin' a party dress
G D G
Sometimes looks can be deceivin', while you're quietly over achievin'
D A D
Oh sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
[Verse]
D
Who says I should repent for the money I spent
A
On shoes and bags and jewelry
Well to hell with all that, my hard workin' ass
D
Ain't gonna sit before a jury
I said now isn't that a mighty small price to pay
G
For all the love I send your way
A
Honey when it comes down to the plumbin'
D
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
[Chorus]
D A
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
A
Standin' up to a test. While wearin' a party dress
G D G
Sometimes looks can be deceivin', while you're quietly over achievin'
D A D
Oh sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
[Coda]
G
Look at Dolly and Loretta
D G
They still live it to the letter
D A
Oh sometimes it takes balls to be
D A
Oh sometimes it takes balls to be
D G
Big, big, big, big balls to be
D A D
Oh sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
