Good Woman Lyrics – The Staves
Well, you say what you want and you never go back
My song is a song, even buried in the black
Well, I cover my mouth and I straighten my back
Well, I cover my mouth and I straighten my back
I’m a good woman
I’m a good woman
Be kind
I’m a good woman
You were raised in the light, I feel like a fool
‘Cause your game isn’t fun if I never know the rules
And you’re measuring out, but you’re coming off cruel
And you say what you say and you send me away
Now you’re on me like
I’m a good woman
I’m a good woman
Surrender is sweet, forgiveness divine
But who will build statues of me when I leave you all behind?
When I’m carrying weight but I know it’s not mine
With half a heart it’s hard to start, but I feel as though
I’m a good woman
I’m a good woman
(I’m a good, good woman)
Come on (I’m a good woman)
I’m a good woman
I’m a good woman
I’m a good, good woman
I’m a good woman
