Lyrics

Solomon (Solomon)
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
I am wiser than Solomon
So, girl, don't play no tricks
Just be calm and be still
Don't run me down for my bread
You wasn't around when I was slaving myself
Girl leave Murvin alone
Because I'm a big man in this town
Let me sing
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
I am wiser than Solomon
So, girl, don't play no tricks
Just be calm and be still
Don't run me down for my bread
You wasn't around when I was slaving myself
Girl leave Murvin alone
Because I'm a big man in this town
Let me sing
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
I am wiser than Solomon
So, girl, don't play no tricks
Just be calm and be still
Don't run me down for my bread
You wasn't around when I was slaving myself
Girl leave Murvin alone
Because I'm a big man in this town
Let me sing
