Grown Woman
.
Pain it's only a little pain
It'll be gone in a couple of days
Or maybe a life or two
Heart it's only my poor heart
Just that little thing you tore apart
It ain't no headline news
.
But a grown woman should've known better
Than to treat me like some old lipstick
You use up and throw away
Hey, hey, hey
.
Time I wish I could turn back time
To when you were just a child
And teach you a thing or two
About love it's okay if you wanna give up
But there's a way to leave someone
And you don't have to be so cruel
.
Cause' a grown woman shoulda' known better
Than to treat me like some old dish rag
You use up and throw away
Hey, hey, hey
.
You're supposed to treat your lover
At least as good as your neighbor
So how could you, a grown woman
Not know no better
.
I ain't no old lipstick you use up and throw away
Cause' you're ready for another shade
Hey, hey, hey
.
You should've known better
Cause' you're a grown woman
.
