Brad Paisley - Waitin On A Woman lyrics

Sitting on a bench at West Town Mall

He sat down in his overalls and asked me

"You waitin' on a woman?"

I nodded yeah and said "How 'bout you?"

He said "Son, since nineteen fifty-two I've been

Waitin' on a woman"

"When I picked her up for our first date

I told her I'd be there at eight"

And she came down the stairs at eight-thirty

She said "I'm sorry that I took so long

Didn't like a thing that I tried on"

"But let me tell you, son, she sure looked pretty

Yeah, she'll take her time, but I don't mind

Waitin' on a woman"

He said "The wedding took a year to plan

You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous

Waitin' on a woman"

And then he nudged my arm like old men do

And said "I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it

Waitin' on a woman"

"And I don't guess we've been anywhere

She hasn't made us late I swear

Sometimes she does it just 'cause she can do it

Boy, it's just a fact of life

It'll be the same with your young wife

Might as well go on and get used to it

She'll take her time 'cause you don't mind

Waitin' on a woman"

"I've read somewhere statistics show

The man's always the first to go

And that makes sense 'cause I know she won't be ready

So when it finally comes my time

And I get to the other side

I'll find myself a bench, if they've got any

I hope she takes her time, 'cause I don't mind

Waitin' on a woman"

"Honey, take your time, 'cause I don't mind

Waitin' on a woman"
