How Lovely to Be a Woman-Ann-Margret

How Lovely to Be a Woman - Ann-Margret Written by：Lee Adams/Charles Strouse When you're a skinny child of fifteen Wide with braces from ear to ear You doubt that you will ever be appealing Then hallelujah you are sixteen 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
