Nowadays A Woman's Gotta Hit A Man

Captain Beefheart · Other Songs - Captain Beefheart

Men you been lookin' all around for the women

But they always been right there

Nowadays a woman has to haul off and hit a man

T' make him know she's there

Other night a woman came up 'n hit me

Like I wasn't even there

Yeah, mmm dawned on me, man

That a man been doin' a woman unfair



Y' gotta wait for your woman

Let her know you're there

I knew I had to go out 'n tell all of the women

That I knew they were there

Now ev'rywhere I go the women all know that I know

Mmm, there ain't no other place to go but there

I'm talkin' about women

Yeah, I'm talkin' about women, man

They don't have to hit me

To make me know it's there

None o' my women have tears in their eyes

You can ask 'em about me I swear

'n they'll tell you

That's one man I swear

Yeah that's a man

'nuff about tellin' you this



Mmm, y' gotta wait for your woman



Let her know you're there

I knew I had to go out 'n tell all of the women

That I knew they were there

Now ev'rywhere I go the women all know



That I know



There ain't no, there ain't no other place to go but there



I'm talkin' about women

They don't have to hit me, man



To make me know it's there

None o' my women have tears in their eyes

You can ask 'em about me I swear
