Clean Livin' Woman

from Snake Road by Englewood

/

lyrics

You’ve heard it in the old songs, you’ve heard it in the blues.
They say that a woman is never good for you.
But my baby isn’t like that, she doesn’t do the things they do.
She’s a clean livin’ woman, and you’ll never hear about her in the blues.

She’s not going to stay in bed after nine,
she’s not going to go out and spend your last dime.
She’s not going to drink up all your liquor and wine.
She’s a clean livin’ woman, and I think she’s really fine.

She’s not going to come home at quarter past two.
She’s not going to come home and say she’s leaving you.
She’s not going to tell you she don’t like the things you do.
She’s a clean livin’ woman, almost too good to be true.

She’s not going to come home at quarter to four.
And when she comes home, she won’t slam the door.
She’s not going to throw all her clothes on the floor.
She’s a clean livin’ woman, at least she’s always been before.
You’ve heard it in the old songs, you’ve heard it in the blues.
They say that a woman is never good for you.
But my baby isn’t like that, she doesn’t do the things they do.
Cuz’ she’s a clean livin’ woman, and you’ll never hear about her in the blues.
Yes, she’s a clean livin’ woman, and you’ll never hear about her in the blues.
