( She`s the First Lady, she`s the First Lady,
she`s the First Lady of the land! )
She might have been a teacher
a job that she`d adore . . .
She might have been a housewife
a wife and nothing more!
She might have been an actress
who might have played Broadway!
But my husband had to be President ( hmm . . . )
and what am I today?
I`m the `first` lady of the land,
the `first` lady of the land
standing on a receiving line,
winding up with an aching spine
calluses on my receiving hand,
as the `first` lady of the land!
For every week a different hairdo,
which means another dress
those meetings with committees,
and sparing with the `press`
those dreary formal dinners,
when I stay up `till dawn
counting all the silver
when the guests have gone!
When they march out in single file,
and I must smile, smile, smile!
I`d rather be the second
or the third or the forth
or the fifth or the sixth
or the seventh instead
of the `first` lady of the land!
I`m the `first` lady of the land,
the `first` lady of the land
entertaining at lunch or tea,
do do-gooders who call on me
telling of their noble deeds they`ve planned
for the `first` lady of the land!
And oh the presents that they send me
an awful lot of junk
an un-housebroken poodle
a dehydrated skunk
a turkey for `Thanksgiving`
potat`as in a sack
but when they send me a `diamond`
I must send it back!
When the whole cabinet arrives
and bring their wives, wives, WIVES!
I`d rather be the second
or the third or the forth
or the fifth or the sixth
or the seventh instead
of the `first` lady of the land!
