If You Were The Woman & I Was The Man Lyrics - John Prine

If you were the woman and I was the man 

Would I send you yellow roses? 

Would I dare to kiss your hand? 

In the morning would I caress you 

as the wind caresses the sand, 

If you were the woman and I was the man? 

If I was the heart and you were the head 

Would you think me very foolish 

if one day I decided to shed 

these walls that surround me 

just to see where these feelings led, 

if I was the heart and you were the head?

If I was the woman and you were the man 

Would I laugh if you came to me 

with your heart in your hand 

and said, "I offer you this freely 

and will give you all that I can 

because you are the woman 

and I am the man?"
