Understand Your Man
Dont call my name out your window when Im leavin
I wont even turn my head
Dont sent your kinfolks to give me no talkin
Ill be gone, like I said
Youd say the same old things that you be sayin all along
Lay there in your bed, keep your mouth shut till Im gone
And dont give me that old familiar
Cry and curse and moan
Understand your man
Meditate on it
Understand your man
And you can give my other suit to the Salvation Army
And anything else I leave behind
Aint takin nothin thatll slow down my travelin
While Im untangled in my mind
And I aint gonna repeat what I said anymore
While I am breathing air
That aint man breathe before
Ill be as gone as a wild goose in winter
Then youll understand your man
Hear me talkin now honey
Understand your man
Understand your man
Meditate on it
Understand your man
