I ain't never loved but a thousand women in my life
Oh Lord, but a thousand women's in my life

Now, the love I have for you, woman, God knows it sure is strong
Oh Lord, I say, God knows it sure is strong

Then if you love me now, woman, then you won't do nothin' wrong
Hey Lord, and you won't do nothin' wrong

Now my woman, please don't worry, baby, while I'm outta your town
Hey Lord, I say, while I'm outta your town

Now the love I have for you, mama, God knows it can't be turned around
Hey, hey Lord, and it can't be turned around

Now, my little women, I said she's sweet as she can be
Hey Lord, yes she's just as sweet as she can be

An' every time I kiss her, then the cold chill run all over me
Hey Lord, the the cold chill run all over me
