The Woman I Love
[verse1]
I’ve got a sweet lovin’ woman named Harriet
She’s got a heart so big I can’t carry it
She loves to drive me around in her chariot
Oh, that Harriet; the woman I love
[verse2]
Love’s a slow mystery – you can’t be rushin’ it
It’s not a throwaway thing so don’t be flushin’ it
It’s your heart on a string so don’t be crushin’ it
Just keep mushin’ it – That thing they call love
[chorus1]Yea, she’s the woman I love;
And my heart is hers alone
I could never love another
‘Cause she’d break all my bones
She’s the woman I love;
I know I’ll never stray
‘Cause she keeps me tied
To the bedpost all day
She’s the woman I love
The woman I love
[verse3]
Love creeps up on you when you’re least expectin’ it
You can sleep when you’re through resurrectin’ it
In a moment or two you’re recollectin’ it
Then disinfectin’ it – oh, yea.. you’re in love
[chorus2] She’s the woman I love;
My heart is hers alone
And she tracks my every move
On my cellular phone
She’s the woman I love;
I know I’ll never stray
‘Cause she locks this ball and chain
Around my ankle all day
She’s the woman I love
The woman I love
[verse 4]
Love is funny, but nothing to laugh about
When a problem comes up you have to thrash it out
Like a pimple on love’s butt, you just mash it out
Oh, without a doubt you’ll find you’re in love
[chorus1]

But I keep going back again ’cause love is worth the pain
