Understand Your Man

Well, don't call my name out your window, I'm leavin'

I won't even turn my head

Don't send your kinfolks to give me no talkin'

I'll be gone, like I said

You'd say the same old things you've been saying all along

Lay there in bed and keep your mouth shut 'til I'm gone

Don't give me that old familiar cussin', moanin' groan

Understand your man

Tidy your bad mouth and understand your man

You can give my other suits to the Salvation Army

And anything else I leave behind

I ain't takin' nothin' that'll slow down my travelin'

While I'm untanglin' my mind

I ain't gonna repeat what I've said anymore

While I'm breathing air that ain't been breathed before

I'll be as gone as a wild goose in winter

Then you'll understand your man

You hear me talkin', honey? Understand your man

Remember what I tell you, understand your man
