Lyrics
I've got a house in the country, a house in the town.
Taxis to drive me both uptown and down.
I got shoes in my closets, I got jewels on my hands.
But I don't have a man to love me.
I got antiques on my mantel,and all the latest machines.
Fur coats to go with each new pair of jeans.
I got respect and success, and I won't settle for less,
But I still want a man to love me, to love me.
(chorus)
I got the LIBERATED LADY BLUES.
And they're the only thing I got that I want to lose.
Everything I've won, I wanna keep,
But I wouldn't mind a loving man to cuddle in my sleep.
The kids all adore me, I got friends who really care.
They say I got talent and I'm going somewhere.
My look aren't even bad, so it really makes me sad,
That I still want a man to love me.
(repeat chorus anda last verse)
I spent most of my life,
Trying to be more than just a wife.
Had to make my own way.
Didn't know what price I'd have to pay.
I'm gonna find a man who's not afraid of me
So I can lose my LIBERATED LADY...BLUES.
