It takes a woman and one good man
Two shots of happiness in one life span
It takes a woman and one good man
Of having once lived by myself
Well, he took everything and left my ears ringing
Well, he took everything and left my ears ringing
And I've tried everything to keep remembering
I feel at home in a foreign land
Two shots of happiness in one life span
And I see no end to this dead end 'til you come back home
It takes a woman and one good man
You know what's next when there's nothing planned
One good woman, one good man
One good woman, one good man
It takes a woman and one good man
I'm talking 'bout love, you know it takes two
To make a one love stand
And I tried every kind of hustlin' man, put my love out on a shelf
Two shots of happiness in one life span
One good woman, one good man
The only thing that hurts is the memory
