When you're walkin' down a street
Don't forget your sex appeal
Even though you're wearin' jeans

It's important to be real
You were born to be yourself
So no matter how you feel

If you want to impress
Be the apple success


When he takes you on a ride
Let him open you the door
When you asks you for a dance

Let him lead you to the floor
When he kisses you good night
Let him come and beg you for more


[chorus]
You can do all you can

Say i am what i am
But first be a woman
First be a woman

First be a woman

When he takes you out to dine

Don't go rushing to his bed
Give yourself a little time
Make him dream of you instead

And his passion can be like
All the stories that you've read
He can be romeo

If you act like juliet

Ends too soon

Even though it's just begun
You can take him to the moon
He'll leave with the morning sun

Take a lesson from the past
Make him sweat and make him run


[repeat chorus]

Ohhhhh, ohh ohhhh


[bridge]


You can't be a quarterback
He can't wear a sexy dress
You cannot be superman

And he's not a
So why try to be a
When it's only self-defense


You've got grace, he's got style
And together you ride

So remember to be true
To the legend that you are
All the feminine in you

Has worked miracles so far
So head up high and don't be shy
You can reach for any star


[repeat chorus]


(first be a woman)
First be a woman
(first be a woman)

First be a woman
(first be a woman)
First be a woman


[bridge]


When you're walkin' down a street
Don't forget your sex appeal
Even though you're wearin' jeans

It's important to be real
You were born to be yourself
So no matter how you feel
Head up high, don't be shy


(first be a woman)
First be a woman
(first be a woman)
First be a woman
(first be a woman)

First be a woman

[repeat chorus 3xfade to fade]
