"Ladies" lyrics

My mother told me, she said, "Andy
You'll be a man soon, so understand me
Most of this world sees women like candy
You'll be a man who will be standing for me"

My sisters, my daughters and wives
Girls who are learning how to shine their light
Dedicate some of your life, stand for them all"
Singing out, "Me, my sisters, my daughters and wives
Girls who are learning how to shine their light
Dedicate some of your life, you will stand for them all"
Singing out

Ladies, you are beautiful, you are beautiful
You don't even have to try
Oh ladies, you are beautiful, you are beautiful
More than you could realize

My mother told me, she said, "Andy
I know this all may seem demanding
But I'll be leaving and will be handing
All of my love to you, you will be standing for me

My sisters, my daughters and wives
Girls who are learning how to shine their light
Dedicate some of your life, stand for them all"
Singing out

Ladies, you are beautiful, you are beautiful
You don't even have to try
Oh ladies, you are beautiful, you are beautiful
More than you could realize

I'm not sure if I'm the best one to carry this torch
I'm a mess and my nose is sore
Falling on my face, tryna break the norm, but I still conform
And I know you see mistakes I make
And wait patiently for me to replace them
And I can't quite seem to be the perfect man you needed me to be
I need you to believe that I'll be standing here
I got my sword, I got my shield
And you keep ringing in my ear
Oh no, talking 'bout

"Me, my sisters, my daughters and wives
Girls learning how to shine their light
Dedicate some of your life, stand for them all"
Singing out

Ladies, you are beautiful, you are beautiful
You don't even have to try
Oh ladies, you are beautiful, you are beautiful
More than you could realize
Ladies, you are beautiful, you are beautiful
You don't even have to try
Oh ladies, you are beautiful, you are beautiful
More than you could realize
