Stephanie Mills Lyrics
"If I Were Your Woman"

Mmmm.
Hey baby, there's something I wanna say.
Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, mmmm.

If I were your woman and you were my man,
You'd have no other woman.
You'd be weak as a lamb.
If you had the strength to walk out that door,
My love would overrule my sense and I'd call you back for more
If I were your woman, (Woman)
If I were your woman (Woman) and you were my man.
Hey, hey.

(Oh, oh, she) She tears you down, darling,
Says you're nothing at all.
But I'll pick you up, darling, when she lets you fall.
(You're like) You're like a diamond, (a diamond)
But she treats you like glass.
Yet you beg her to love you,
But me, oh no, you don't ask.

If I were your woman. (Woman)
If I were your woman. (Woman)
If I were your woman, (Woman) here's what I'd do.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.
I'd never, never, no, no, stop loving you.
Hey, hey, eh, eh.

Life is so crazy and love is unkind.
But because she came first, will she hang on your mind.
(You're) You're a part of me and you don't even know it
(Oooh, oooh, oooh.) That I'm what you need,
But I'm so, so afraid to show it.

If I were your woman. (Woman)
If I were your woman. (Woman)
If I were your woman, (Woman) here's what I would do.
Oooh, oooh.
I'd never, never, no, no. No, no.
Never, never, no, no. Never.
Never, never, no, no, stop loving you, oooh, oooh.
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.

(If I were your woman. Woman, woman, woman.)
Sweet loving woman, yeah.
(If I were your woman. Woman.)
You're a part of me and you don't even know it
(If I were your woman. Woman.)
That I'm what you need and I'm not afraid to show it.
(If I were your woman.) Your woman, (Woman) your woman.
If I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I...
(If I were your woman. Woman, woman, woman.)
Yeeeee, hee, eee, hee, yeah.
(If I were your woman. Woman.)
Me ending all would be ready when you got a home.
(If I were your woman. Woman.) It's alright, ha ha, ha,
you wouldn't never, never ever have to roam.
(If I were your woman. Woman.) I'm the only woman, yes I am.
(If I were your woman. Woman, woman, woman.)
And I-I-I-I-I-I don't understand, I don't want no other man.
