Always a Woman

The old man leaned over and he asked me: "What's got you lookin' so down?" I said, "There's problems at home, Some things you wouldn't understand" Said, "Son I've seen a lot in my life "And there's one thing I've come to know "There's only one thing that can put that kinda look on a man" "It's always a woman "It's always a woman "Just take a look at my face and make no mistake "Well, it's always a woman" He said "Son let me tell you my story "Somethin' every man should know "There was a time I was time standin' on the edge, lookin' down "And I felt a hand on my shoulder "And a voice that whispered in my ear "I got there on my own, but there was only one thing turned me around" "It's always a woman "It's always a woman "Just take a look at my face and make no mistake "Well it's always a woman" So I went back home and I held her We didn't have to say a word She just cried and she smiled and she wiped those tears from our eyes So next time I'm feelin' sorry For myself I hope I understand There's only one thing between the devil and a good man It's always a woman It's always a woman Just take a look at my face and make no mistake Well it's always a woman
