Lyrics Sometimes It Takes Balls To Be A Woman - Live - Melinda Schneider

She's a socialite and a decent housewife
And she makes a mean lasagna
So when the mechanic said, "Lady, don't panic
I would never con ya"
She said, "No, I don't need my engine rebuilt
Just check the oil and change the belt
Honey, I know you thought you saw me comin'"
Bloody mechanics

Yeah, sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman
Sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman
Standin' up to the test
While you're wearin' a party dress
Sometimes, looks can be deceivin'
When you're quietly overachievin'
Oh, sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman
Yeah

She said I should repent for the money I spent
On shoes and bags and jewelry
I said, "To hell with that, my hard-workin' ass
Ain't gonna sit before a jury
Isn't that a mighty small price to pay
For all the love I sent your way?"
But when the bills arrived
I felt my heart a-drummin'
Uh-oh
But hell, sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman
Sing it with me, girls

Sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman
Standin' up to the test
While you're wearin' a party dress
Sometimes, looks can be deceivin'
When you're quietly overachievin'
Oh, sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman
One more time
Sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman
Hallelujah, sisters
Standin' up to the test
While you're wearin' a party dress
Sometimes, looks can be deceivin'
When you're quietly overachievin'
Oh, sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman

Look at Dolly and Loretta
They still live it to the letter
Sometimes, it takes balls to be
Big, big, big, big balls to be
Sometimes, it takes balls to be a woman
Ah-ha
See you later in the week, everyone
