Thanks to Melinda Doolittle (who sang this song on American Idol last night) and Peggy Lee (who wrote the song) I have the perfect words to go with some pictures I've been waiting to post for some time now.
I can wash out 44 pairs of socks and have 'em hangin out on the line
I can starch and iron 2 dozens shirts fore you can count from 1 to 9
I can scoop up a great big dipper full of lard from the drippins can
Throw it in the skillet, go out and do my shopping,
be back before it melts in the pan
Cause I'm a woman! W-O-M-A-N, I'll say it again
I can rub and scrub this old house til it's shinin like a dime
Feed the baby, grease the car, and powder my face at the same time
Get all dressed up, go out and swing til 4 a.m. and then
Lay down at 5, jump up at 6, and start all over again
Cause I'm a woman! W-O-M-A-N, I'll say it again
See me placing a Peapod order and looking up recipes, talking on the phone, cooking dinner and juggling two babies all at once?
And see these piles of freshly washed and folded laundry done by yours truly with six little ones under foot? By the end of the day they'll all be put away too. Amazing, I know. I can even nurse two babies, eat lunch, pay bills online AND watch "A Baby Story" all in one blow. And if you think I'm the Bomb, you should meet my mother. So to all you real women out there, especially my friend Kim who knows exactly what I'm talking about, we totally rock!
