A letra:
Man
got his woman to take his seed
He got the power, oh, she got the
need
She spends her life through pleasing up her man
She feeds
him dinner or anything she can
She cries alone at night too
often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all
Only women bleed
Only women
bleed
Only women bleed
Man makes your hair gray, he's your
life's mistake
All you're really lookin' for is an even break
He
lies right at you, you know you hate this game
He slaps you once
in a while and you live and love in pain
She cries alone at night
too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all
Only women bleed
Only women
bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women
bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Man got his woman to take his seed
He
got the power, oh, she got the need
She spends her life through
pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner or anything she can
She
cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come
home at all
Only women bleed
Only women
bleed
Only women bleed
Black eyes all of the time
Don't
spend a dime, clean up this grime
And you there down on your
knees
Begging me, please come watch me bleed
Only women bleed
Only women
bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women
bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
