Ry Cooder - WOMEN WILL RULE THE WORLD lyrics

(Raymond Quevedo)

How different the ladies of long ago to the modern women that we all know

If you observe you are bound to see that sex has changed entirely

A long ago their one ambition in life, was to be a mother and a wife

Now they go out imitating the males by smoking cigarettes and drinking cocktails

Girls used to like to be school teachers, gradually becoming stenographers

We next hear of them as lecturers, authors and engineers

There is no limit to their ambition, they've even gone in for aviation

And if you men don't assert control your women will rule the world

Play a bridge!

Now they say anything that your man can do, they also can achieve too

And they've openly boasted to do their part in the literature and art

We will next hear of them as candidates for the president of these United States

And if you men don't assert control your women will rule the world

Now you hear on the radio and TV of a great national calamity

Story of tragic proportion coming from the White House in Washington

The facts in the case are clearly stated the president is being cruely dominated

By a international conspiracy that threatens world peace and security
