When A Woman Loves A Man — Billie Holiday

Johnny mercer / bernie hanighen / gordon jenkins

Maybe hes not much, just another man

Doing what he can

But what does she care

When a woman loves a man

Shell just string along

All through thick and thin

Till his ship comes in

Its always that way

When a woman love a man

Shell be the first one to praise him

When hes goin strong

The last one to blame him

When everythings wrong

Its such a one-sided game that they play

But women are funny that way

Tell her shes a fool

Shell say yes, I know

But I love him so

And thats how it goes

When a woman loves a man

Tel I her shes a fool

Shell say yes, I know

But I love him so

And thats how if goes

When a woman loves a man
