She ain't built that way

Why is it that a woman can't climb up a tree?
Cause she ain't built that way
Why the two of them can never agree?
Cause they're not built that way
It's true there is no effect without a cause
A woman can never come under a clause
And she never gives a reason for waging her jaws
Cause she ain't built that way

Don't give your wife any secretes to keep
Because she ain't built that way
She couldn't hold them even in her sleep
Cause she ain't built that way
She can keep you in water that is dreadfully hot
Take when she can all the change that you got
But keepin' a secret, why certainly not!
Because she ain't built that way

Don't rave about every girl you meet on the street
Because they're not built that way
Don't rave about their figure that's so perfect and neat
Because they ain't that way
With bustles and padding and heels that are high
And blending of color just to capture the eye
But the real from the sham you tell if you try
Because there's lots of them built that way

A woman can not hit a barn with a stone
Because they ain't built that way
She can't bear to stay in the house all alone
Because she ain't built that way
She can stay up all night at a masquerade ball
Try out every dancer there is in their halls
But don't ask her to sew on a button at all
Because she ain't built that way

A woman can never jump over a fence
Because she ain't built that way
When a mad bull chases there's no defense
Because she ain't built that way
She can kick up a row and upset every plan
She's been noted for that since the world began
She can't strike a match in the dark like a man
Because she ain't built that way
