She's a Woman
Chet Atkins Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I know that she's no peasant
Only ever has to give me
Love forever and forever
My love don′t give me presents
Turn me on when I get lonely
People tell me that she's only fooling
I know she isn't
She hates to see me cry
She is happy just to hear me
Say that I will never leave her
She don′t give boys the eye
She will never make me jealous
Gives me all her time as well as loving
Don't ask me why
She′s a woman who understands
She's a woman who loves her man
My love don′t give me presents
I know that she's no peasant
Only ever has to give me
Love forever and forever
My love don′t give me presents
Turn me on when I get lonely
People tell me that she's only fooling
I know she isn't
Woo oo oo, woo
She′s a woman who understands
She′s a woman who loves her man
She don't give boys the eye
She hates to see me cry
She is happy just to hear me
Say that I will never
leave her
