She's a Definite Woman

she's a definite woman - she can deal with anything she's a mind to
she's a definite woman - she can turn to anything she's inclined to
she exercises will and there is nothing she'll be confined to

she's a definite woman - real thing no counterfeit-imitation
she's a definite woman - with a will that won't accept limitation
embodied femininity, the jewel crowning all creation

if you imagine now as best as you can
the kind of a man who hatches a plan in detail

who thinks of woman as a trap to be set
a catch in the net, I'm willing to bet that he'll fail

too hot to handle, a million-watt candle, she's female

and when she's got that resolute determination in her eyes
she could drive in reverse right around the universe, yeah
-----
if you think you're on top you're kidding yourself
deluding yourself, deceiving yourself that you choose

because if you believe it's easy to shake
her foot off the brake, you make a mistake, and you lose

not when she settles her feet on the pedals in new shoes

and it's the height of self-delusion to believe it's otherwise
when you stand there in the goal
she's the one who's in control, yeah

she's a definite woman - any signal you emit she will pick up
she's a definite woman - when she speaks in sotto voice all ears prick up
she can stop you in your tracks and with one gesture remove your hiccup

she's a definite woman ......
