Lyrics for Nowadays a Woman's Gotta Hit a Man
Men you been lookin' all around for the women But they always been right there Nowadays a woman has to haul off and hit a man T' make him know she's there Other night a woman came up 'n hit me Like I wasn't even there Yeah, mmm dawned on me, man That a man been doin' a woman unfair Y' gotta wait for your woman Let her know you're there I knew I had to go out 'n tell all of the women That I knew they were there Now ev'rywhere I go the women all know that I know Mmm, there ain't no other place to go but there I'm talkin' about women Yeah, I'm talkin' about women, man They don't have to hit me To make me know it's there None o' my women have tears in their eyes You can ask 'em about me I swear 'N they'll tell you That's one man I swear Yeah that's a man 'Nuff about tellin' you this Mmm, y' gotta wait for your woman Let her know you're there I knew I had to go out 'n tell all of the women That I knew they were there Now ev'rywhere I go the women all know That I know There ain't no, there ain't no other place to go but there I'm talkin' about women They don't have to hit me, man To make me know it's there None o' my women have tears in their eyes You can ask 'em about me I swear
