And not me but the people they say
That the man are leading the women astray

That's right de woman is uh smarter, that's right, that's right

And if you listen to my bid attentively

And not me but the people they say
That the man are leading the women astray
But I say, that the women of today
Smarter than the man in every way

No one could a beat him, as we all know
Until he loved Deliah, Lila said
All of the strength is in the hair of your head

That's right the woman is uh smarter

Ah you meet a girl at a ballroom dance
Thinking that you would stand a chance
Take her home, thinking she's alone
Open the door you find her mama home

And not me but the people they say
That the man are leading the women astray
But I say, that the women of today
Smarter than the man in every way
Oh yes, smarter
