Lyrics
LOVE DEM WOMENS
I wanna tell you boys ?bout a thing I know
I been searchin? high, been searchin? low
I wanna tell you boys just what I found
Lord, dem womens make the world go round
Lord, dem womens make the world go round
They make me feel real funny when they walk that walk
They make me spend my money when they talk that talk
I love ?em in the mornin?, noon & night
They know what to do to make me feel alright
They know what to do to make me feel alright
Lord, you got to love dem womens - Lord, you got to love dem womens
Ain?t nothin? left that I can say ? You got to love dem womens
My best buddy?s girl is named Celestine
You she?s not too sweet & she?s not too mean
She keeps him smilin? all day long
With a girl like that you can?t go wrong
Yeah, with a girl like that you can?t go wrong
Juanita is the woman that I love so
You she?s not too fast & she?s not too slow
She cooks me fried chicken & etouffee
She keeps me close to home that way
Yes, she keeps me close to home that way
Lord, you got to love dem womens ? Lord you got to love dem womens
Ain?t nothin? better in the world today ? You got to love dem womens
