LYRICS:
YES, INDEPENDENT.
KEEPS HER HOUSE IN ORDER.
TAKES CARE OF HER LOVED ONES.
SAVES FOR A RAINY DAY.
SHE’S SELF SUFFICIENT.
NEVER ONE TO BORROW.
TAKES HER TO DINNER,
SHE PAYS FOR HER OWN WAY.
AND SOMETIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF GETTIN’ IT ALL RIGHT,
EV’RY ONCE IN A WHILE, SHE THINKS, ‘MAYBE, SOMEDAY, A MAN.’
IN HER PEW ON SUNDAY.
NEVER LOSES HER TEMPER.
GIVES TO WORTHY CAUSES
AS OFTEN AS SHE CAN.
A REAL TROUBLESHOOTER.
NEVER LOSES HER FOCUS.
ALWAYS HAS A BACKUP.
ALWAYS HAS A PLAN.
AND SOMETIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF GETTIN’ IT ALL RIGHT,
EV’RY ONCE IN A WHILE, SHE THINKS, ‘MAYBE, SOMEDAY, A MAN.’
SHE’S NEVER SEEN ANYBODY WHO COULD DO FOR HER,
BUT SHE’D LOVE TO BE PROVEN WRONG.
WHAT DOES HE SMELL LIKE? CAN SHE TASTE HIS KISSES?
FEEL HIS MOUTH ON HERS?
SHE’S NEVER HAD THE TIME TO CONSIDER IT.
HOW COULD SHE WASTE HER TIME ON SUCH FOOLISHNESS?
THANK GOD SHE’S A SURE ‘NOUGH SURVIVOR.
A MOTHER AND A SISTER.
SHE COULD GO IT ALONE
IF THAT’S HOW IT TURNED OUT.
AH, BUT SOMETIMES, WHEN I’M SURE THAT I’VE GOT IT ALL RIGHT
EV’RY ONCE IN A WHILE I THINK…
SOMEDAY, A MAN.
