Women Be Wise Lyrics - Bonnie Raitt

1 Women be wise,

2 Keep your mouth shut,

3 Don't advertise your man

4 Don't sit around gossiping,

5 Explaining what your good man really can do

6 Some women nowadays,

7 Lord they ain't no good

8 They will laugh in your face,

9 Then try to steal your man from you

10 Women be wise,

11 Keep your mouth shut,

12 Don't advertise your man

13 Your best girlfriend,

14 She might be a highbrow,

15 She changes clothes 3 times a day

16 What do you think she's doing now,

17 While you're so far away

18 She's loving your man in your own damn bed

19 You better call for the doctor, mama,

20 Try to investigate your head

21 Women be wise, keep your mouth shut,

22 Don't advertise your man

23 Women be wise, keep your mouth shut,

24 Don't advertise your man

25 Don't sit around, girl,

26 Telling all your secrets,

27 Telling all those good things he really can do

28 If you talk about your baby,

29 You tell me he's so fine

30 Lord honey,

31 I just might sneek up and try to make him mine

32 Women be wise,

33 Keep your mouth shut,

34 Don't advertise your man

35 Don't be no fool,

36 Don't advertise your man (baby don't do it)
