man, what a woman
Singer: waterboys, the
she opens her heart with a slow reveal
man
what a woman
shows a treasure that's lain long concealed
man
what a woman
then drives away in a low-slung automobile
man
what a woman
she won't suffer pomposity
or tolerate hypocrites
she's got a bullshit detector
first class
and she keeps it lit
she's got cool taste in music
likes it rustic and weird
man
what a woman
her favourite singers all have sideburns or beards
man
what a woman
she loves the end of pale rider when clint eastwood sneers
man
what a woman
she's got a quicksilver wisdom
and a head full of spells
two or three children around her feet
and she raises 'em well
it's a lucky man who's ever loved
held or kissed her
man
what a woman
you ask me am i one
but i ain't tellin' mister
man
what a woman
if she was ever in any kind of trouble i'd be honoured to assist her
man
what a woman
she's the queen of the greenwood
she's pan's little sister
man
what a woman
she's married already
to someone righteous and kind
she'll always be beautiful
but she'll never be mine
what a woman!
what a woman
