Look at me, I'm gorgeous in my housecoat with my coffee cup
I bend to get the paper, every neighbor's trying to check me out
Look at me, I'm lovely as I wave beside my minivan
Look at how my diamonds seem to sparkle on the garbage can
God bless the American housewife
(How she does it all, I'll never know)
God bless the American housewife
(She could use a miracle for sure)
God bless the American housewife
(Cleaning up the world for you and me)
God bless the American housewife
Look at how my children play commando in the cul-de-sac
Look at how my husband has survived another heart attack
Look at all the other mothers, envious of all my things
Have to call the plumber, 'cause my daughter flushed my wedding ring
God bless the American housewife
(How she does it all, I'll never know)
God bless the American housewife
(She could use a miracle for sure)
God bless the American housewife
(Cleaning up the world for you and me)
God bless the American housewife
Look at me, I'm beautiful and glamorous in rubber gloves
Look how my tiara can be bent back to the shape it was
I can do the laundry and make dinner while I'm on the phone
Look at me, I'm sexy as the devil when I mow the lawn
God bless the American housewife
(How she does it all, I'll never know)
God bless the American housewife
(She could use a miracle for sure)
God bless the American housewife
(Cleaning up the world for you and me)
God bless the American housewife
Oh, God bless the American housewife
I bend to get the paper, every neighbor's trying to check me out
Look at me, I'm lovely as I wave beside my minivan
Look at how my diamonds seem to sparkle on the garbage can
God bless the American housewife
(How she does it all, I'll never know)
God bless the American housewife
(She could use a miracle for sure)
God bless the American housewife
(Cleaning up the world for you and me)
God bless the American housewife
Look at how my children play commando in the cul-de-sac
Look at how my husband has survived another heart attack
Look at all the other mothers, envious of all my things
Have to call the plumber, 'cause my daughter flushed my wedding ring

(How she does it all, I'll never know)
God bless the American housewife
