Married Man's A Fool

(앨범: Paradise And Lunch - 1974)

Had a friend, Louie Brown, he was a deacon
Just as wise as he could be
Now I realize he could read the Good Book
Back from Revelations down to Genessee
You know last Sunday morning we was over to the church
My buddy wants to take him a stand
And he looks out upon that whole congregation
The Good Book in his hand
Now he cast his eye about, and then he looks over in the Amen Corner
All the sisters commenced to shout (what'd he say?)
He said a man's a fool to think that his wife love nobody else but him
She stick by you all your life, the chances is mighty slim

Now you read the Good Book, chapter twenty-one
Every married woman got to have a little fun
Read on over chapter twenty-two
It's a sin to let that woman make a fool outta you
Now you read a little further, chapter twenty-three
She two-time you, brother, like she double-crossed me
Read on back, over chapter ten
She shimmy one time, she like to wobble again
'Cause a man's a fool to think that his wife
Love nobody else but him, I mean, love nobody else but him

Well, a man's a fool to think that his wife
Love nobody else but him
She stand by you all of your life, the chances is mighty slim
Now you read on over twenty-fifth page
Married woman's loyalty is hard to engage
Read kinda careful, chapter twenty-six
Back door slamming, you got to run and get it fixed
Read on out, chapter twenty-eight
Who's that back sliding out through your back gate?
I believe I'll close on chapter twenty-nine
Woman get tired of the same man all the time
'Cause a man's a fool to think that his wife love nobody else but him
