Listen to yo' daddy warn you
|
'Fore you start a-traveling
|
Woman may born you, love you and mourn you
|
But a woman is a sometime thing
|
Yes a woman is a sometime thing
|
|
Yo' mammy is the first to name you
|
Then she'll tie you to her apron string
|
Then she'll shame you and she'll blame you
|
Till yo' woman comes to claim you
|
'Cause a woman is a sometime thing
|
Yes a woman is a sometime thing
|
|
Don't you never let a woman grieve you
|
Jus' 'cause she got yo' weddin' ring
|
She'll love you and deceive you
|
Then she'll take yo' clothes and leave you
|
'cause a woman is a sometime thing
|
Yes a woman is a sometime thing
|
Yes a woman is a sometime thing
|
Yes a woman is a sometime thing
|
|
