Lyrics Woody Guthrie – Ladies Auxiliary

Oh, the Ladies’ Auxiliary
It’s a good auxiliary
The best auxiliary
That you ever did see

I ain’t a knockin’ on our women
I love them as much as you
But womens mighty funny
And we all know that is true
Riding on the subway or walking on the street
These things our women wear for hats have really got me beat

Some wind around like serpents
Some look like ice-cream cones
Some like flower gardens that blossom on their domes
Some like grocery baskets some look like rat traps
And you can’t tell if their going out or just a’ comin’ back
One may have a feather ten feet in the sky
Fifteen yards o’ fishin’ net that falls down in her eyes
We love our women tenderly an weakness we all got that
But you could sell a woman anything if you tell her it’s a hat

Oh, the Ladies’ Auxiliary
It’s a good auxiliary
The best auxiliary
That you ever did see
If you need an auxiliary
See the Ladies’ Auxiliary
It’s the Ladies’ Auxiliary
