When a Woman Loves a Man - Billie Holiday & Her Orchestra

Maybe he’s not much, just another man

Doing what he can

But what does she care

When a woman loves a man

She’ll just string along

All through thick and thin

Till his ship comes in It’s always that way

When a woman love a man

She’ll be the first one to praise him

When he’s goin' strong

The last one to blame him

When everything’s wrong

It’s such a one-sided game that they play

But women are funny that way

Tell her she’s a fool

She’ll say yes, I know

But I love him so And that’s how it goes

When a woman loves a man

Tell her she’s a fool

She’ll say yes, I know

But I love him so And that’s how if goes
