I Got a Woman Lyrics

Well, I got a woman
Way across town
She's good to me
Oh, oh yeah
Say I got a woman
Way across town
She's good to me
Oh yeah
She gives me money
Every time I need, yes
You know she's the kind
Of friend indeed
Say I got a woman
Way across town
She's good to me
Oh yeah
She says she loves me
Early in the morning
Just for me
Oh yeah
She says she loves me
Early in the morning
Just for me
Oh yeah
She says she loves me
Just for me, yeah
You know she loves me
Sometime I leave
I got a woman
Way across town
She's good to me
Oh yeah, aw
She says she loves me
All day and night
Never grumbles or fusses
She just treats me right
Never running in the streets
Leaving me alone
She's knows a woman's place
Right back there
Hanging by the home
Well, I got a woman
Way across town
She's good to me
Oh yeah
Well, I've got a woman
Way across town
She's good to me
Oh yeah
Well, she's my baby
Because she understands
I'm her loving man
I got a woman
Way across town
She's good to me
Oh yeah
Says she's all right
Says she's all right
I got a woman
Way across town
She's good to me
Oh yeah

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

An old Ray Charles song, which was originally a gospel song. Elvis and I believe the Monkees covered this as well.
