Always a Woman

The old man leaned over and he asked me:
 "What's got you lookin' so down?"
 I 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
 "Somethin' every man should know
 "There was a time I was time 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 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 and 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
