I wouldn't kick a cactus; cactus plants have thorns.
I wouldn't kick a brahma; brahma steers have horns.
I never tease with honeybees, ‘cause honeybees will sting.
But when I squeeze a woman, I don't fear anything.

Chorus
And yet a pretty woman is a deadly weapon,
Is a deadly weapon like a gun.
I know a pretty woman is a deadly weapon,
But I don't have sense enough to run.

I wouldn't let a bobcat close enough to scratch,
And when I'm near explosives, I wouldn't strike a match.
I won’t give a snake an even break, ‘cause snakes can kill you dead,
But when I'm near a woman, I guess I lose my head.

And yet a pretty woman is a deadly weapon,
Is a deadly weapon like a knife.
I know a pretty woman is a deadly weapon,
But I'd trust a woman with my life.

Now, I don't want a fortune; just enough to do.
And I don't want a palace; just a room or two.
So keep your cars and long cigars and all that fancy enough,
But when it comes to women, I just can't get enough.

Chorus
And yet a pretty woman is a deadly weapon,
Is a deadly weapon, yes sirree.
But I have known a lot of pretty deadly weapons,
And there's still a lot of life in me.
