Sometimes a Woman Dont Need No Man
Once I wanted a woman
So I just had to tell her
She said wait I got a thing to say
Well then give it to me straight
I don’t roll that way
You know you got to explain
She said a man aint what I need
She said a man can’t play my game
A man can’t be my world
For this I feel no shame
People let me tell you somthin
I learned a great deal that day
You know a fish may need the water
And legs might need the land
But sometimes a woman don’t need no man
I put my hands in my pockets
Hung my head and walked away
You know I looked back and saw
That girl kiss another lady
This it filled me up
With a new kind of blues
I have my heart stolen by a girl
And I have had a girl stolen by a man
But I never had no girl stolen by a lesbian
People let me tell you somthin
I learned a great deal that day
You know a fish may need the water
And legs might need the land
But sometimes let me tell ya a woman don’t need no man
