Etta James - Only women bleed lyrics

Man's got his woman to take his seed He's got the power - oh She's got the need She spends her life through pleasing up her man She feeds him dinner or anything she can She cries alone at night too often He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Man makes your hair gray He's your life's mistake All you're really lookin' for is an even break He lies right at you You know you hate this game He slaps you once in a while and you live and love in pain She cries alone at night too often He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Black eyes all of the time Don't spend a dime Clean up this grime And you there down on your knees begging me please come Watch me bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed Only women bleed
