Letra

Well... i got a woman, way over town
she's good to me, oh yeah
said i got a woman, way over town
she's good to me, oh yeah
she gives me money when i'm in need
yeah, she's a kind of friend indeed
i got a woman, way over town
she's good to me, oh yeah
She saves her lovin', early in the mornin'
just for me, oh yeah
she saves her lovin', early in the mornin'
just for me, oh yeah
she saves her lovin', just for me
always loves me, so tenderly
i got a woman, way over town
she's good to me, oh yeah
She's there to love me
both day and night
never grumbles or fusses
always treats me right
never runnin' in the streets
leavin' me alone
she knows a woman's place
is right there, now, in the home
I got a woman, way over town
she's good to me, oh yeah
said i got a woman, way over town
she's good to me, oh yeah
well, she's my baby, don't you understand
yeah, i'm her lovin' man, now
i got a woman, way over town
she's good to me, oh yeah
well, don't you know she's all right
well, don't you know she's all right
she's all right, she's all right
