If you want to be a lady
Have a look at me.
Folks line up for days
Just to have a
Look-see.
Take it from me
What you see
Is a lady indeed.
If you want to be a lady
Have a look at me.
Paint your lips a touch too wide
Hide secrets in your mouth.
Stand on corners for too long
Just to have a
Look-see.
Hang your purse on your left
Your lovers photo turn it right
If you want to meet a lady
Well then offer her a ride.
All these men are looking
Looking at me
Giving me the once over
With a big old
Look-see.
Carry the world by its knees
Keep the porch light burning bright
Sell yourself for nothing less than
One grandstanding night
If take it from me
What you'll see
Is a lady indeed.
If you want to be a lady
Have a look at me.
