Hello

May I speak to Barbara

Barbara, this is Shirley

Now you might not know who I am

But the reason I'm callin' you is because

I was goin' through my old man's pockets this morning

And I just happened to find your name and number

So woman to woman

I don't think it's bein' any more than fair than to call you

And let you know where I'm comin' from

Now Barbara, I don't know how you're gonna take this

But whether you be cool or come out of a bag on me

You see, it really doesn't make any difference

But it's only fair that I let you know

That the man you're in love with, he's mine

From the top of his head to the bottom of his feet

The bed he sleeps in, and every piece of food he eats

You see, I make it possible

The clothes on his back, ha-ha, I bought him

The car he drives, I pay the note every month

So I'm tellin' you these things to let you know how much I love that

man

And woman to woman I think you'll understand just how much I'll do

to keep him



Woman to woman

If you've ever been in love

Then you'd know

How I feel



And woman to woman

Now if you were in my shoes

Wouldn't you have done

The same thing too



Whoa, woman to woman

Can't you see where I'm comin' from

And woman to woman

Ain't that the same thing you would have done



Woman to woman

Now should I just step aside

And let her take

What's rightfully mine



Whoa, woman to woman

Was I right or was I wrong

And I ain't gon' let you

Break up my happy home



Now woman to woman

Now you see I don't want no trouble now

I hope you understand

I love that man and he's mine



I'm talkin' to you woman to woman

You should be woman enough to understand

That man

I love that man



Woman, woman, woman to woman

He's mine

And I ain't gon' give him up

No, baby, and I ain't lyin'



The best of my years went into that man
