original 2017 broadway revival cast of the hello, dolly! - it takes a woman lyrics

Loading...

[vandergelder]
it takes a woman all powdered in pink
to joyously clean out the drain in the sink
and it takes an angel with long golden lashes
and soft dresden fingers
for dumping the ashes

[cornelius, barnaby, and two customers]
yes, it takes a woman
a dainty woman
a sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
oh yes it takes a woman
a fragile woman
to bring you, the sweet things, in life

[vandergelder]
the frail young maiden who’s constantly there
for washing and blueing and shoeing the mare
and it takes a female for setting the table
and weaving the guernsey
and cleaning the stable

[all]
oh yes it takes a woman
a dainty woman
a sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
oh yes it takes a woman
a fragile woman
to bring you the sweet things in life

and so she’ll work until infinity
three cheers for femininity
rah rah rah, rah rah rah
f. e. m. i. t. y

[vandergelder]
and in the winter she’ll shovel the ice
and lovingly set out the traps for the mice
she’s a joy and treasure for practically speaking
to whom can you turn when the plumbing is leaking?

[vandergelder, cornelius, and barnaby]
to. that. dainty woman
that fragile woman
that sweetheart, that mistress, that wife
oh yes it takes a woman

[vandergelder]
a husky woman

[vandergelder, cornelius, & barnaby]
to bring you the sweet things in life!

[all]
oh yes it takes a woman
a dainty woman
a sweetheart, a mistress, a wife
oh yes it takes a woman, a fragile woman
to bring you the sweet things in life
