Lucky, you're a woman with children
That's an important sign
Lucky, I'm a man who loves children
Small world, isn't it?

I mean, the emphasis does change slightly from the "Rose" version, with the mention of Herbie's loving children first, but it's not major. It seems to me the "male" variant is written out in the sheet music version.
