A Woman’s Mind

You and have come a long way together
Haven't we, baby? Ha, I remember
When times were bad, you stood right by me
Didn't you darling? Oh
And I love you for that
But I don't want your little heart
To want for a thing
Because if I've only got one life to live
Like they say
Then I wanna spend that one life
Taking care of you, because, baby
I'm a true believer and an old sayin'
That I heard a lady say one time
As I was travelin' through the world
On my way somewhеre
I don't remembеr where it was
But I remember this old lady
Sittin' on her front porch
Lookin' at her hands
That the years had wrinkled and twisted
And as she looked at her hands
She looked back up at me

And she said, she said to me
"Son, a woman's hands just weren't made"
"To work hard all the time"
Can't you just see that?
I know a lot of men are gonna
Be mad at me for sayin' that
But I got to say it again, I said
"A woman's hands just weren't made"
"To work hard all the time"
Here's what they were made for
They were made to "rub a man's head"
"Make her man some bread"
"Fix him a good cup of coffee"
"And put his children to bed"

And that's what a woman's hands
Were made for, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You think that's something? Listen to this
"A woman's love wasn't made to worry"
"All the time" and the quicker the men
Realize that, the better off the world's
Going to be, listen to me, I said
"A woman's mind wasn't made"
"To worry all the time, " listen
It was made to "pick up"
"Cuddle little things to do"
"To survive her man"
"And try to keep him smilin'"
"As long as she can"

That's what a woman's mind
Was made for, oh, that's what
A woman's mind was made for
