A Woman Or The Blues

A Woman Or The Blues
 Performed by Curtis Salgado
 (Well alright. I want to tell you all something about my mother
 Well, yeah
 She used to tell me, "Someday you're going to have to make a choice.
 Going to have to make a choice... between woman and the blues.")
 I got something for you, brother, put a question up to you
 You see a man comes to a crossroads, deciding which way to go
 Either way there's hell to pay; you got to carry the load
 Because love will give you heartache, trouble going to beat you down
 It's a no-win situation, and buddy it's coming around
 It's up to you, whoa, oh, oh
 When you choose
 A woman or the blues
 A woman or the blues
 Well, a woman got a motivation, you'll never understand
 She'll love you and then leave you, for another man
 Hard times they're a given, knock a-right on your door
 Long as you're still living, it's something you can't ignore
 Because love will give you heartache' trouble going to beat you down
 It's a no-win situation, and buddy, it's coming around
 It's up to you, whoa oh, oh
 When you choose
 A woman or the blues
 A woman or the blues
 (solo)
 Well I hope you don't mind me preaching, but I just got to testify
 I'm a man with compassion, and I hate to see a another man cry
 So I hope you get my message, 'cause I don't want to raise my voice
 'Cause I ain't your mother, so listen up, brother,
 You're gonna to have to make the choice.
 Because love will give you heartache, trouble going to beat you down
 It's a no-win situation, and buddy it's coming down
 It's up to you, yeah, whoa, oh
 When you choose
