Song lyrics

When you're walking down the street
Show your feminine appeal,
Even though you're wearing jeans,
It's important to be real

You were born to be yourself,
So no matter how you feel
If you want to impress the opposite sex
When he takes you for a ride
Let him open you the door
When he asks you for a dance,
Let him lead you to the floor
When he kisses you good night
You just leave him wanting more,
You can do all you can,
Say I am what I am
But first be a woman...

When he takes you out to dine,
Don't you end up in his bed,
Wedding bells will ring in time,
Make him dream of you instead
And his passion can be like
All the stories that you've read,
He can be Romeo if you act like Juliet,
Nowadays it ends too soon
Even though it's just begun

You can take him to the Moon,
He'll leave with the morning sun,
So take a lesson from the past,
Make him want and make him run,
You can do all you can,
Say I am what I am,
But first be a woman...

You can't be a quarterback,
He can't wear a pretty dress,
You cannot be Superman
And he's not a shy princess.
So why try to be alike
When it's only self-defense?
You've got grace, he's got style
And together you'll rhyme

So remember to be true
To the legend that you are,
All the feminine in you
Has worked miracles so far,
So head up high and don't be shy
You can reach for any star
You can do all you can...
Say I am what I am,
But first be a woman...
