Well there used to be a time when a man was a king
To work for a man was a womans only dream
Everything he did was perfectly alright
He didnt have to worry about fussin and fightin
It dont happen no more
That was a long time ago
Its a pitiful shame
How the world has changed

There used to be a time when a woman couldnt smoke
There used to be a time when a woman couldnt vote
She used to stay at home while the man went out to play
She was satisfied with life any old way

It dont happen no more
That was a long time ago
Its a pitiful shame
How the world has changed
Well, well

There used to be a time when a woman couldnt cook
There used to be a time she didnt worry about her looks
She used to sip on sassafrass, she didnt even drink
She didnt try to tell her man how to think

It dont happen no more
That was a long time ago
Its a pitiful shame
How the world has changed
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

It dont happen no more
That was a long time ago
Its a pitiful shame
How the world has changed

It dont happen no more
That was a long time ago
Its a pitiful shame
How the world has changed
