Billie Holiday Lyrics
"Girls Were Made To Take Care Of Boys"

Girls were made
To take care of boys
To be kind and dutiful

Girls were made
To take care of boys
Made to share their sorrows
Made to share their joys

Made to help and guide them
With ever a patient hand
Made to give affection
In the right direction
(Always understand)

Now boys may think
They take care of girls
Just because they pass on
Their fashions and their curls

But I've always found
It's just the other way around
(Other way around)

If you need the girl
And declare you do
(Tell her that you need her)
She'll be there
To take care of you
(She'll be there)

Now boys may think
They take care of girls
Just because they're clever
With their fashions and their curls

But I've always found
It's just the other way around

(And if you need the girl)
And declare you do
She'll be there
(She'll be there)
To take care of you
