๐ Lyrics
I am ashamed that women are so simple
To offer war where they should kneel for peace
Or seek for rule, supremacy, and sway
When they are born to serve, love, and obey
Why are our bodies soft and weak and smooth
And apt to toil and trouble in the world
But that our soft conditions and our hearts
Should well agree with our external parts?
So, wife, hold your temper and meekly put
Your hand 'neath the sole of your husband's foot
In token of which duty, if he please
My hand is ready, ready
May it do him ease
To offer war where they should kneel for peace
Or seek for rule, supremacy, and sway
When they are born to serve, love, and obey
Why are our bodies soft and weak and smooth
And apt to toil and trouble in the world
But that our soft conditions and our hearts
Should well agree with our external parts?
So, wife, hold your temper and meekly put
Your hand 'neath the sole of your husband's foot
In token of which duty, if he please
My hand is ready, ready
May it do him ease
