When A Woman Loves A Man (Live)

by Bobby Short

on Live At The Cafe Carlyle (1974), Live At The Café Carlyle (1974)

Maybe he's not much
Just another man doing what he can
What does she care
When a woman loves a man

She'll just string along
All through thick and thin till his ship comes in
It's always that way
When a woman loves a man

She'll be the first one to praise him when he's going strong
The last one to blame him when everything is wrong
It's such a one sided game that they play
But women are funny that way

Tell her she's a fool
She'll say, "Yes, I know but I love him so"
And that's how it goes
When a woman loves a man

Tell her she's a fool
She'll say, "Yes, I know but I love him so"
And that's how it goes
When a woman loves a man
