If I Was The Woman and You Were The Man -     Martin Dean
VS 1: If I was the woman and you were the man, I’d show you love and I’d understand
I’d let you go and hang out with the boys, and let you buy all your expensive toys
If I was the gal and you were the guy, I wouldn’t care if you let birthdays go by
If you forgot to bring candy and flowers, I wouldn’t carry on about it for hours
If I was the woman and you were the man
CH 1: And if I was the woman, and if you were the man
I’d let you nap while I cooked and cleaned, I’d let you read your favorite magazine
If I was the woman and you were the man

VS 2: I you were the guy and I was the gal, I’d watch the football game with you like a pal
You could drink all you want till you didn’t want more, and you could smoke and put the ash on the floor
I’d let you sit and read the paper all day, I’d do the dishes and I’d put them away
I’d let you burp and make rude noise, and let you do everything you enjoyed
CH 2: And if I was the woman, and if you were the man
Let you go fishin’ any day of the week, tell you your breath always smelled so sweet
If I was the woman and you were the man

Bridge: If I were you and you were me, I know, It would hurt your feelings you see
If someone told you everything you did was bad
I know if you would just turn this around, you would see that you were puttin’ me down
And then you’d know I really wasn’t so bad, it’s just a couple bad habits I have.

CH 3: So why don’t you just be the woman, and then I’ll just be the man
You know you really mean the world to me, I promise I will try and do much better you see
I just want you to be the woman, and I’ll be the man
I just want you to be the woman, and I’ll be the man

If I Was The Woman and You Were The Man
