If Blues Is A Woman
Honey, if blues, it is a woman
Well, then, heartache is a man
Can't nobody down here tell me
The devil don't have busy hands.
You see, the boys, they love to preach it
How they love us little girls
Then they love us and they leave us
Where they found us in this world.
Then they sit in bars till daylight
Talkin' how they was done wrong
Chasin' women, chasin' whiskey
Till ever drop o' love is gone.
Now, I've broke a heart or three
Had my share of dirty deals
Didn't love the one that loved me
So I know just how that feels.
But I never meant no evil
Never tried to do no bad
Made acquaintance with tha' lonely
Slept in rooms just full of sad.
Men say blues, it is a woman
Makes 'em hurt long as it can
But I say, if blues, it is a woman
Surely, heartache is a man.
I'll Take Care of You by Van Morrison
