GShe leans by the pool and she B7dares you to stare her CdownD  
Her Gpulse never races and her B7feet never leave the CgroundD  
Her Cteeth are shiny, they're Dso manicured
She Clooks so distant, Dso self-assured
She'll Ctake you home tonight, you'd Dbetter be alright
She's modern Gwoman
You'll Gnever see the wind blow the B7style right out of her ChairD  
She's Gcool as a snake and some B7say it doesn't end CthereD  
She's Cgot a brand new hat, Dup-to-date shoes
CLatest fashion, Dmodern point of view
She Cnever sits still, 'till she's Dover the hill
Modern Gwoman
Oh, you'll B7never see Cher laugh, you'll never see her fret nor frown
But the B7wheels of her Cmind go arouDnd and around and around, and around
Oh she's free as a bird and she goes wherever she please
She'll take you along if you'll just get up off your knees
She's got no strings, she likes it that way
No little babies crying all day
She doesn't need the fuss, it's so obvious
She's modern woman
Well these modern woman, they're all the same
They just want your body they don't want your brain
She'll bid you adieu when she's had enough of you
Modern woman
She looks so demure, you feel so insecure
Modern woman
She's cool as ice, she never looks twice
Modern woman
She never sits still, 'till she's over the hill
Modern woman
