Always a Woman

The old man leaned over and he asked me

What's got you looking so down?

Said, there's problems at home

Some things you wouldn't understand

Said, son, I've seen a lot in my life

And there's one thing I've come to know

There's only one thing that can put

That kinda look on a man

It's always a woman

It's always a woman

Just take a look at my face

And make no mistake

Well, it's always a woman

He said, son, let me tell you my story

Something every man should know

There was a time I was standin'

On the edge lookin' down

And I felt a hand on my shoulder

And a voice that whispered in my ear

I got there on my own

But there was only one thing that turned me around

It's always a woman

It's always a woman

Just take a look at my face

And make no mistake

Well, it's always a woman

So I went back home and I held her

We didn't have to say a word

She just cried and she smiled

Then she wiped those tears from our eyes

So next time I'm feelin' sorry

For myself, I hope I understand

There's only one thing

Between the devil and a good man

It's always a woman

It's always a woman

Just take a look at my face

And make no mistake

Well, it's always a woman
