Lyrics
Beehive hairdo, '45 on the hip Patrolwoman Saunders, don't you give her no whip Took me to the station for a breathtest Then back to the bedroom for some house-arrest

Women in uniform, sometimes they look so cold Women in uniform, but, oh, they feel so warm

Coming back to London on a 747 Stewardess made me feel like I'm in heaven Looking up the aisle to see what I could see She leaned over said, "coffee, tea or me?"

White apron, brown leather shoes The nurse at the clinic left my heart all bruised Broke my left leg, sprained my right Now she takes my temperature every night

Women in uniform, sometimes they look so cold Women in uniform, but, oh, they feel so warm Women in uniform, Women in uniform Women in uniform, Women in uniform

Commando raid on the Lebanese border Sergeant Anita, she gives the order Khaki jacket and a love gun Baby, I surrender, let's have some fun

Women in uniform, sometimes they look so cold Women in uniform, but, oh, they feel so warm

Women in uniform, sometimes they look so cold Women in uniform, but, oh, they feel so warm Women in uniform, Women in uniform Women in uniform, Women in uniform

Women in uniform, Khaki, white and blue Women in uniform, coming after you Women, women, Women in uniform Women, women, Women in uniform

Women in uniform, sometimes they look so cold Women in uniform, but, ooh yeah, ooh yeah Women in uniform, Khaki, white and blue Women in uniform, I have to get my hands on you

Women in uniform, but, oh, they feel so warm Women in uniform, look out, look out
