Only Women Bleed
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Man's got his woman to take his seed
He's got the power, oh, she's got the need
She spends her life through pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner or anything she can
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Man makes your hair grey, he's your life's mistake
All you're really looking for is an even break
He lies right at you, you know you hate this game
He slaps you once in a while and you live and love in pain
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Black eyes all of the time
Don't spend a dime
Ain't it a crime
And you there down on your knees
Begging me please come watch me bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
