It’s All Because of a Woman Songtext
von Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes featuring Theodore Pendergrass

People start to ask me where,
Where is the big strong man they used to know?
Oh baby. Hmm.
And people start to ask me where,
His good job, his fat bankroll and his fancy clothes?
Where did they go?
I don′t know. I don't know.

You see I′ve been affected by that same thing.
That usually brings a good man down.
And if you wanna know the truth about it ha.
C'mon everybody, everybody, everybody.
C'mon everybody. C′mon gather around.

It′s all because of a woman. It's all because of a woman.
A woman. A woman.
(I know. I know.)
It′s all because of a woman.
(Alone. That's got me like this ha.
Got me like this ha. The shape that I′m in.)


Oh Lord. Oh Lord.
My.

People are starting to ask me why,
Why I drink, I drink so much alcohol.
And that ain't all. That ain′t all.
And I say people are starting to ask me why, why I never laugh.
I don't laugh no more and I don't smile at all, at all, at all.

You see I, I′ve been affected by that same thing.
That surely, that surely, surely brings a good man down.
Ah, if you wanna know the truth about it.
Then c′mon everybody, everybody.
(Everybody)
C'mon.
(Everybody)
C′mon. C'mon. C′mon, c'mon and gather around. You see.


I′ts all because of a woman.
That's what did it to me.
(A woman. A woman.)
It's all because of a woman.
Oh baby. Got to tell you, got to tell you.
That′s the one thing that keeps me in the shape that I′m in.
I'ts all because of a woman.
(A woman. A woman.)
It′s all because of a woman.
(A woman. A woman)
