It Took A Woman Lyrics

It Took A Woman lyrics

IT TOOK A WOMAN



IT TOOK A BULLY RIDING MY BACK

TO MAKE ME MAD
ENOUGH TO FIGHT

AND A SUMMER WITH MY GRANDDAD

TO FIND OUT WHAT HARD
WORK’S LIKE

IT TOOK THAT FOOTBALL COACH IN HIGH SCHOOL

TO MAKE ME
TOUGHER THAN THE REST

AND THAT FIRST BEER WITH MY DADDY

TO PUT THAT
FIRST HAIR ON MY CHEST

IT TOOK A HEART TO HEART WITH JESUS

TO BRING
ME TO MY KNEES

BUT IT TOOK A WOMAN TO MAKE A MAN OUT OF ME  

  

IT TOOK A PAIR OF SOFT BLUE EYES

AND A SMILE SO SWEET 

TO MAKE ME
REACH UP HIGH

AND REALLY DIG DOWN DEEP

SHE’S MADE ME SO MUCH MORE
THAN WHO I USED TO BE

IT TOOK A WOMAN TO MAKE A MAN OUT OF ME



 IT TOOK THE FIRST YEAR WE WERE DATING

AND DRINKING TOO MUCH WITH THE
BOYS

FOR HER TO GIVE AN ULTIMATUM

FOR ME TO HAVE TO MAKE A
CHOICE

IT TOOK A WANT ADD IN THE PAPER

TO SELL THAT ‘68
FIREBIRD

AND BUY THAT DIAMOND RING I GAVE HER,

AND RENT OUT THAT
LITTLE CHURCH

IT TOOK THE DAY MY BABY GIRL WAS BORN

TO MAKE A TEAR
ROLL DOWN MY CHEEK

IT TOOK A WOMAN TO MAKE A MAN OUT OF ME



IT TOOK A PAIR OF SOFT BLUE EYES

AND A SMILE SO SWEET 

TO MAKE ME
REACH UP HIGH

AND REALLY DIG DOWN DEEP

SHE’S MADE ME SO MUCH MORE
THAN WHO I USED TO BE

IT TOOK A WOMAN TO MAKE A MAN OUT OF ME
