For a lady the men of today don't open doors
For a man the ladies of today don't sweep floors
All so different from not so many years ago
Old fashioned values are no longer on show

Men are no longer the earners and breadwinners
Women no longer at home making their dinners
Are these things right I cannot possibly say
So much change in the world we live today

I remember the time when my dad was alive
Worked all hours and certainly not nine to five
Mum would be at home with a meal prepared
Nowadays all the tasks are so equally shared
