You Are Woman Lyrics by Barbra Streisand

You Are Woman

Nick and fanny meet up in baltimore where fanny is on a tour with ziegfelds
Latest show. they have dinner at a private dining room. fanny is annoyed that
Nick hasnt been in touch for ten months. nick orders, mainly in french, which
Fanny doesnt understand. fanny is uneasy that nick might make advances in such
An intimate room.

Nick:
You are woman, I am man,
You are smaller, so I can be taller than,
You are softer to the touch,
Its a feeling I like feeling very much.
You are someone Ive admired,
Still, our friendship
Leaves something to be desired.
Does it take more explanation than this?
You are woman, I am man
Lets kiss.
Fanny:
Isnt this the height of nonchalance,
Furnishing a bed in restaurants?
Well, a bit of dinner never hurt,
But guess who is gonna be dessert?
Do good girls do just what mama says,
When mamas not around?
Its a feeling,
Oy vey, what a feeling.
Nick:
A bit of pat?
Fanny:
I drink it all day.

Should I do the things hell tell me to?
In this pickle what would sadie do?
In my soul I feel an inner lack,
Just suppose he wants his dinner back?
Both:
Does it take more explanation than this?
Fanny:
Just some dried-out toast in a sliver,
On the top a little chopped liver.

How many girls become a sinner
While waiting for a roast beef dinner?
Though most girls slip in ordinary ways
I got stylei do it bordelaise.
Well, at least he thinks Im special
he ordered a la carte.
Its a feeling I like feeling very . . .
I feel the feeling down to my toes.
Now I feel that theres a fire here,
Try that once a little higher, dear,
What a beast to ruin such a pearl,
Would a convent take a jewish girl?
Both:
Does it take more explanation than this?
Fanny:
Ooo, the thrills and chills goin through me,
If I stop him now,
Can he sue me?
Nick:
You are woman . . .
Fanny:
You are man . . .
Both:
Lets kiss!
