Maria Muldaur

I can wash out forty-four pairs of socks
And have them hangin out on the line
I can starch and iron two dozen shirts
Before you can count from one to nine
I can scoop up a great big dipper
Full of lard from the drippin's can
Throw it in the skillet, go out and do my
Shopping and be back before it melts in the pan
'Cause I'm a woman
Double U O M A N
I'll say it again

I can rub and scrub till this old house
Is shinin like a dime
Feed the baby, grease the car and
Powder my face at the same time
Get all dressed up, go out and swing
Till four a.m. and then
Lay down at five, jump up at six
And start all over again
'Cause I'm a woman
Double U O M A N
I'll say it again

If you come to me sickly, you know
I'm gonna make you well
If you come to me hexed up,
You know I'm gonna break the spell
If you come to me hungry,
You know I'm gonna fill you full o' grits
If it's lovin' you're lackin, I'll kiss you
And give you the shiverin fits
'Cause I'm a woman
Double U O M A N
I'll say it again

I can stretch a greenback dollar bill
From here to kingdom come
I can play the numbers, pay my bills
And still end up with some
I got a twenty dollar gold piece says
There ain't nothin I can't do
I can make a dress out of a feed bag
And I can make a man out of you
'Cause I'm a woman
Double U O M A N
I'll say it again
'Cause I'm a woman
Double U O M A N
And that's all

Midnight at the oasis
Send your camel to bed
Shadows painting our faces
Traces of romance in our heads
Heaven's holding a half-moon
Shining just for us
Let's slip off to a sand dune, real soon
And kick up a little dust
Come on, Cactus is our friend
He'll point out the way
Come on, till the evening ends
Till the evening ends
You don't have to answer
There's no need to speak
I'll be your belly dancer, prancer
And you can be my sheik

I know your Daddy's a sultan
A nomad known to all
With fifty girls to attend him, they all send him
Jump at his beck and call
But you won't need no harem, honey
When I'm by your side
And you won't need no camel, no no
When I take you for a ride
Come on, Cactus is our friend
He'll point out the way
Come on, till the evening ends
Till the evening ends
Midnight at the oasis
Send your camel to bed
Got shadows painting our faces
And traces of romance in our heads

Hasn't it been a long hard climb?
Everything taking its own sweet time
And hasn't there been some long, lonely nights
When you didn't think that anything would turn out right?

Woah, baby, come and lay by me
In the cool, cool shade of that old, oak tree
You can go, oh, so high

Painting by to that long way down
You can paint a rainbow in the sky
Just try to keep your both feet on the ground

Woah, baby, come and lay by me
In the cool, cool shade of that old oak tree

Hey, can you see that sun outside?
Say, can you feel it deep inside like a song
Like a long, long string

Hasn't it been a long hard climb?
Everything taking its own sweet time
And hasn't there been some long, lonely nights
When you didn't think that anything would turn out right?

Woah, baby, come and lay by me
In the cool, cool shade of that old oak tree
Woah, baby, come and lay by me
In the cool, cool shade of that old oak tree
Woah, baby, come and lay by me

Carrying on a conversation
Looking in your eyes
The words they seem to pass us by
You know as well as I

How many kinds of tribulation
Must a friend endure
The years, they leave a man unsure
Of where to beg when he is poor

Whoa baby, how I love you
Mad as I think you are
Guess you think I'm crazy too
But mad, mad me, I love you

Carrying on in a world of silence
Your eyes aflame to me
They jump and burn and make me see
How much to you I want to be
How much to you I want to be

Whoa baby, how I love you
Mad as I think you are
Guess you think I'm crazy too
But mad, mad me, I love you

Whoa baby, how I love you
Mad as I think you are
Guess you think I'm crazy too
But mad, mad me, I love you

But mad, mad me I love you

(Bob Dylan)

Seasons they are turning and my sad heart is yearning
I hear again the songbird weep below his tone
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone

The dusky light the day is losing
Orchards, poppies, black eyed Susan
The earth and sky that melts with flesh and bone
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone

The air is thick and heavy all along the levee
Where the geese into the countryside have flown
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone

Well, I'm preaching peace and harmony
The blessings of tranquility
Yet I know when the time is right to strike
I take you 'cross the river, dear
You no need to linger here
I know the kinds of things you like

The clouds are turning crimson, the leaves fall from the limbs and
The branches cast their shadows over stone
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone

The boulevards of cypress trees, the masquerade of birds and bees
The petals blinking white, the wind has blown
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone

The trailing moss in mystico, the purple blossom soft as snow
My tears keep flowing to the sea
Doctor, lawyer, indian chief, it takes a thief to catch a thief
For whom does the bell toll for, love?
It tolls for you and me

Old pulses running through my palm, the sharp hills are rising from
Yellow fields with twisted oaks that grow
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone
