I thank my band Bones Hillman on upright bass, Tim Carroll electric guitar, Greg Davis on
banjo and John McTee the third on [Bbm] drums.
[N] We ain't never even practiced.
[F]
I'll leave [Ab] you
with this song right here that inspired a line of panties that can be yours for ten [F] dollars.
Well she's a socialite, a decent housewife and she makes a mint [C] and lasagna.
When the mechanic said to lay that old panty, this one's [F] good for the portion.
She said you know I [Dm] don't need my [F] engine rebuilt, [Bb] just check the oil and change the belt.
[C] Honey I know you thought you saw it all, but sometimes it takes balls to be [F] a woman.
Sometimes it takes [Gm] balls to [B] be [C] a woman.
Standing up to a test, while wearing a party dress.
Sometimes [Bb] girls can be deceiving, when [F] they're quietly [Bb]
overachieving.
[F] Oh sometimes it [C] takes balls to [F] be a woman.
Since I should repent for the money I spent on shoes and bags [C] and children.
You better hear me say my hard working ass ain't gonna sit before [F]
a jury.
I send a hand and a mighty small prize to pay [Bb] for all the love I sent your way.
[C] But honey when it comes down to the plumbing, not that much rhymes with woman.
Sometimes it takes balls to be [F] a woman.
Sometimes it takes [Ab] balls [Gm] [C] to be a woman.
Standing up to a test, while wearing a party dress.
[Am] [Bb] Sometimes girls can be deceiving, [F] when they're quietly [Bb]
overachieving.
[F] Oh sometimes it [C] takes balls to [F] be a woman.
[Bb] That dolly and the red hook, they [F] still love you [D] to the letter.
[G] Oh sometimes [C] it takes balls to [F] be a big, [Cm] big, big, [D] big money.
[G] Sometimes it [C] takes balls to [Gm] be [F] a [Cm] woman.
[F]
Thank y'all so much, great to be here at Music City Roots, thank you.
