Lyrics: When A Woman Loves A Man
Album: The Quintessential – Volume 5
Artist: Billie Holiday
 

Johnny mercer / bernie hanighen / gordon jenkins

Maybe he’s not much, just another man
Doing what he can
But what does she care
When a woman loves a man
She’ll just string along
All through thick and thin
Till his ship comes in
It’s always that way
When a woman love a man
She’ll be the first one to praise him
When he’s goin’ strong
The last one to blame him
When everything’s wrong
It’s such a one-sided game that they play
But women are funny that way
Tell her she’s a fool
She’ll say yes, i know
But i love him so
And that’s how it goes
When a woman loves a man
Tel i her she’s a fool
She’ll say yes, i know
But i love him so
And that’s how if goes
When a woman loves a man
