Can't Go Back Songtext
von Steve Goodman

Now in this great big world of trouble
Sometimes there must be a little joy
And when the woman wants the good, good lovin′
She will separate the men from the boys
And men you know it's the same for us
All around the world
Once you′ve been in love with the
Good, good woman, it sure is hard to go
Back to girls

Now when I was just a little boy
My Poppa said these words to me
Son, you better watch your step when
You go lookin' for the female company
Don't be fooled when they make eyes at you
And they all look the same
For the woman is the one who means the business
The little girl is just playing a game


When the woman′s thinking of you
Some little girl will come to break your heart
You can find the one who loves you
If you′re man enough to tell them apart
And Poppa told me, when you find one
Who gives you good lovin'
Then son, don′t you ever make her cry
You could search the whole world over
And never find another no matter
How hard you try
And just remember that she will only care for you
Just as much as you care for her
And once you've been in love
With the good, good woman, it sure is
Hard to go back to girls

When the woman′s thinking of you
Some little girl will come to break your heart
You can find the one who loves you
If you're man enough to tell them apart
And Poppa told me, when you find one
Who gives you good lovin′
Then son, don't you ever make her cry
You could search the whole world over
And never find another no matter
How hard you try
Just remember that she will only care for you
Just as much as you care for her
And once you've been in love
With the good, good woman, it sure is
Hard to go back to girls


Yes, once you′ve been in love
With the good, good woman, it sure is
Hard to go back to girls
Oh once you′re on the track
Then you can't look back
If she′s the one then you can have some fun.
