Katie: 
A woman's touch

Calamity: 
A woman's touch

Katie: 
The magic of Aladdin couldn't do as much

Katie: 
She's a wizard, she's a champ

Calamity: 
And she doesn't need a lamp

Katie:
A woman's touch can weave a spell
The kind of hocus pocus that she does so well

Calamity:
With the magic of a broom
She can mesmerize a room

Katie:
With a whisk whisk here and a whisk whisk there
And a dustpan for the cinders

Calamity:
With a rub rub here and a rub rub there
She can polish up the winders
Then presto chango
Suddenly, the sun comes shining through

Katie:
And what does Mr Sunshine say to you?

Calamity: 
Howdy-do!

Katie: 
It makes you blink, to stop and think

Calamity: 
A woman and a whisk-broom can accomplish so darn much

Both: 
So never underestimate a woman's touch

Calamity:
A woman's touch can quickly fill
The empty flower boxes on a winder sill

Katie:
One smile from her and zoom
Little buds begin to bloom

Katie: 
A touch of paint

Calamity: 
A magic nail

Both: 
Can turn a kitchen chair into a Chippendale

Calamity:
Even make the lamp appear
Like a crystal chandelier

Katie:
With a tack tack here and a tack tack there
And a hand around a hammer
With a mop mop here and a mop mop there
You can give a cabin glamour

Calamity:
Then gosh almighty, all at once
The cabin that we knew
Becomes a shining castle built for two

Both: 
Me and you

Katie:
The pies and cakes a woman bakes
Can make a fella tell her
That he loves her very much

Calamity: 
It can?

Both: 
So never underestimate a woman's touch
