Butch (Live) Lyrics

Butch, this butch woman

Butch, this butch woman

Butch, this butch woman

Butch, this butch woman

From the corner of my eye, she's there

In grocery stores and county fairs

With slicked back hair and scraped up knees

Like Alison said: a ring of keys

When she was young, do you think her mother called her wild?

A rugged steel mug but she's full of chamomile

Butch, this butch woman

Drinks OJ right at dawn

She's got a true routine

Knows when she's gonna yawn

Butch, this butch woman

Knows how to sew and so

When the machine goes on

She's hemming all her clothes

(Woah)

She's everything I want

(Woah)

Everything I want to be

She walks content and firm and calm

She has no God but sings a psalm

The joy of life, to know herself

She sings her thanks to have good health

She's seen her friends get hurt for just their smile

When she was young, her mother called her wild

Butch, this butch woman

Lets her leg hair grow out long

And if you point it out

She'll ask you why it's wrong

Butch, this butch woman

Wears her face clean bare to work

She's proud of how

She's had it naked since her birth

(Oh butch, this butch woman, ah)

She's everything I want

(Oh butch, this butch woman, ah)

Everything I

Crew cut sexy knows she's got it figured out

(She survived identity trial)

I might be butch if I had it figured out

(But I know that I know I won't know for a while)

Butch, butch, butch, butch!

(Butch, butch, butch, butch!)

Butch, this butch woman

Butch, this butch woman

Butch, this butch woman

Butch, this butch woman

Butch

Butch

Butch, this butch woman
