A Woman Left Lonely
Spooner Oldham, Dan Penn
A woman left lonely will soon grow tired of waiting
She`ll do crazy things, yeah, on lonely occasions
A simple conversation for the new men now and again
Makes a touchy situation when a good face come into your head
And when she gets lonely, she`s thinking `bout her man
She knows he`s taking her for granted, yeah yeah
Honey, she doesn`t understand, no no no no!
Well, the fevers of the night, they burn an unloved woman
Yeah, those red-hot flames try to push old love aside
A woman left lonely, she`s the victim of her man, yes she is
When he can`t keep up his own way, good Lord
She`s got to do the best that she can, yeah!
A woman left lonely, Lord, that lonely girl
Lord, Lord, Lord!
