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

Every now and then I could hear a trumpet blasting out in the background and see a blue singer wrapped around the standing microphone...with the crowds roaring...I enjoyed thoroughly ..
