How Lovely to Be a Woman - Susan Watson

When you're a skinny child of fourteen

Wide with braces from ear to ear

 

You doubt that you could ever be appealing

 

Then Hallelujah You are fifteen

And the braces disappear

 

And your skin is smooth and clear

 

And you have that happy grown-up female feeling

 

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's round instead of flat

 

Whenever you hear boys whistle

 

You're what they're whistling at

It's 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 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

 

Life's lovely when you're a woman like me

 

How 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 change from boys to men

 

To go to a fancy nightclub

And stay out after ten

How lovely to be so grown-up and free

 

 

Life's lovely when you're a woman like me
