Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band Nowadays A Woman's Gotta Hit A Man lyrics

Men you been lookin' all around for the women
But they always been right there
Nowadays a woman has to haul off and hit a man
To make him know she's there

Other night a woman came up 'n hit me
Like I wasn't even there
Yeah, mmm dawned on me, man
That a man been doin' a woman unfair

You gotta wait for your woman
Let her know you're there
I knew I had to go out 'n tell all of the women
That I knew they were there

Now ev'rywhere I go the women all know that I know
Mmm, there ain't no other place to go but there
I'm talkin' about women
Yeah, I'm talkin' about women, man
They don't have to hit me to make me know it's there


None of my women have tears in their eyes
You can ask 'em about me I swear
And they'll tell you, that's one man I swear
Yeah that's a man, 'nuff about tellin' you this

Mmm, y' gotta wait for your woman
Let her know you're there
I knew I had to go out 'n tell all of the women
That I knew they were there

Now ev'rywhere I go the women all know that I know
There ain't no, there ain't no other place to go but there
I'm talkin' about women
They don't have to hit me, man

To make me know it's there
None of my women have tears in their eyes
You can ask 'em about me I swear
