My baby makes me proud
  Lord, don't he make me proud
  He never makes a scene
  By hangin' all over me in a crowd
  
  'Cause people like to talk
  Lord, don't they like to talk
  But when they turn out the lights
  I know he'll be leavin' with me
  
  And when we get behind closed doors
  Then I let my hair hang down
  He makes me glad that I'm a woman
  Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors
  
  My baby makes me smile
  Lord, don't he make me smile
  He's never far away
  Or too tired to say I want you
  
  And I'm always a lady
  Just like a lady should be
  But when they turn out the lights
  He's still my baby to me
  
  And when we get behind closed doors
  Then I let my hair hang down
  Oh, he makes me glad I'm a woman
  Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors
  
  oh, behind closed doors
  I let my hair hang down
  I'm glad that I'm a woman
  No one knows what goes on behind closed doors
  
  Behind closed doors
  I let my hair hang down
  He makes me glad I'm a woman
  No one knows what goes on behind closed doors
  
  And when we get behind closed doors
  Then I let my hair hang down
