It Took A Woman

歌詞

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
