How Lovely to Be a Woman Lyrics by Original Broadway Cast of Bye Bye Birdie

Bye Bye Birdie (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

[Kim]
When you're a skinny child of fourteen
Wired with braces from ear to ear
You doubt that you could ever be appealing...
The hallelujah! You are fifteen
And the braces disappear
And your skin is smooth and clear
And you have that happy, grown-up, female feeling!
How lovely to be a woman
The wait was well worthwhile
How lovely to wear mascara
And smile a woman's smile
How lovely to have a figure
That's round instead of flat
Whenever you hear boys whistle
You're what they're whistling at!
It's wonderful to feel
The way a woman feels
It gives you such a glow
Just to know
You're wearing lipstick and heels
How lovely to be a woman
And have one job to do:
To pick out a boy and train him
And then when you are through
You've made him the man you want him to be...
Life's lovely when you're a woman like me!
How wonderful to know
The things a woman knows!
How marvelous to wait
For a date
In simply beautiful clothes!
How lovely to be a woman
And change from boys to men
And go to a fancy night club
And stay out after ten!
How lovely to be so grown-up and free!
Life's lovely when you're a woman like me!
