Raitt Bonnie - Women Be Wise Lyrics

Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man.
Don't sit around gossiping, explaining what your good man really can do.
Some women nowadays, Lord they ain't no good.
They will laugh in your face, then try to steal your man from you.
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man.

Your best girlfriend, she might be a highbrow,
She changes clothes at least 3 times a day.
What do you think she's doing now? While you're so far away.
She's loving your man and in your own damn bed.
You better call for the doctor, mama, try to investigate your head.
Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man.

Women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man.
Don't sit around, girl, telling all your secrets,
Telling all those good things he really can do.
If you talk about your baby and you tell me he's so fine.
Lord honey, I just might sneak up and try to make him mine.
I said, women be wise, keep your mouth shut, don't advertise your man.
Don't be no fool, don't advertise your man.
(Baby, don't do it)
