--IT TAKES A WOMAN--
Horace, Cornelius, Barnaby, and Company.

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 dressden fingers for dumping the ashes...
Yes it takes a woman, a dainty woman, a sweetheart, a mistress, a wife.. Oh yes it takes woman, a fragile woman to bring you the sweet things in life.
The frail young maiden who's constantly there, for ashing and bluing and shoeing the mare, and it takes a female for setting the table and weaning the Guernsey and cleaning the stable...
Oh yes it takes a woman, to bring the sweet things in life!..

And so she'll work until infinity, three cheers for feminity..(Spoken)Rah! Rah! Rah! F-E-M-I-T-Y!

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 practic'lly speaking, to whom can you turn when the plumbing is leaking?

To that dainty woman, that fragile woman, that sweetheart that mistress, that wife. Oh yes, it takes a woman, a husky woman to bring the sweet things in life!....

Oh, yes it takes a woman, a dainty woman, a sweetheart, a mistress, a wife. Oh yes, it takes a woman, a fragile woman, to bring you the sweet things in life.
