Wives And Lovers

(album: Movie Greats Of The 60s - 1966)

Hey, little girl, comb your hair, fix your make-up, soon he will open the door
Don't think because there's a ring on your finger, you needn't try any more
For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment that he comes home to you

I'm warning you
Day after day, there are girls at the office and the men will always be men
Don't stand up, with your hair still in curlers, you may not see him again

Wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you

He's almost here, hey, little girl, better wear something pretty
Something you wear to go to the city
Dim all the lights, pour the wine, start the music, time to get ready for love

Time to get ready for love, it's time to get ready for love
It's time to get ready, for love
