Ain’t nothing like a woman
Ain’t nothing like a lady
To pick you up with their good loving
When days are dark and crazy.
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To pick you up with simple words
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To settle aching nerves.
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To offer you her help
Ain’t nothing like a woman
Might be hurting worse herself.
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To trim you of your frills
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To cure you of your ills.
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To have your back, like you’d your brothers
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To reach the depths reserved for lovers.
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To give you hope, when there’s close to none
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To give you legs when your race feels run.
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To give shape when all’s entangled
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To help you see straight when all seems angled.
Ain’t nothing like a woman
To back you to the hilt
Ain’t nothing like, you, woman
I know many, of a different ilk.
