Let me tell you what I heard about a man today

He didn't come home from work and he went away

Till he came to a city

Bright in the nighttime like day

There they say he met up with

Some women dressed in yellow and scarlet

Their warm lips like a honeycomb dripped with honey

And somethin' about the smell of strange perfume

Made him feel warm and not alone

Yes, Carolyn

A man will do that sometimes on his own

And sometimes when he's lonely

I believe a man might do that sometimes out of spite

But, Carolyn

A man will do that always

When he's treated bad at home

Yes, Carolyn

A man will do that sometimes on his own

And sometimes when he's lonely

And I believe a man might do that sometimes out of spite

But, Carolyn

A man will do that always

When he's treated bad at home
