If you hear her cry at nightnBetter turn on your lightnMaybe your baby's got the bluesnWhen she says there's nothing wrongnShe just wants to be alonenYou can bet your baby's got the bluesnn[Chorus]nWomen like men to make the first movenAnd touch her like he used tonWhen there's achin' in her heartnOnly tenderness can findnWomen like men to make them feel alivenAnd keep her apron strings untiednYes women like men nTo love them through the blues sometimennWhen her days all run the samenAnd she says she thinks she needs a changenMaybe your baby's got the bluesnIf she says she's just a wifenAnd so far from the glamorous lifenYou can bet your baby's got the bluesnn[Chorus]nnYes, women like men to love them through the blues sometimes
