BACK WOMAN BLUES

Lyrics & Music by: Ian Mcleish
 

1.
Come and listen to my song, it won't take very long -
I'll tell you 'bout that woman who treated me wrong;
Take my advice, 'cause I tell you every word is true -
Come and listen to my plight, then go do what's right -
If you want a body to warm you at night;
Take my advice or the same thing'll happen to you.

Bridge 1.
Your woman will be there,
As long as you don't take her like a fool -
'Cause if you do now, don't be surprised - when you open your eyes -
She starts playing it cool.

2.
Come and listen to my song, then go take my dare -
Open up your heart to her and prove you care;
And if you do, your baby will always be true.

Bridge 2.
Now if you want a woman
Who'll treat you nice and good -
Then do what I say - and she won't go away -
If you make her feel like a lady should.

(repeat verse 1)
