I Can Love You Like A Woman (Or I Can Fight You Like A Man)
 From the album "Queen of the Blues" by Koko Taylor
 I always thought that a man should be the boss in his home
 But how can a king run his castle
 Wwhen he's always gone? (Now listen)
 I tried to do the things for you that a woman should do
 But you taken me for granted, baby
 You must think I'm some kind of fool
 But here is some food for thoughts, and I hope you understand
 I can love you like a woman but also fight you like a man
 (And I don't think nothin' 'bout it)
 You rush out and take your time coming in
 And that's how it's always been
 You've been treating me like I'm a piece of wood
 Since I don't know when
 But I'm a peaceful woman, I know violence is no good
 But I can't demonstrate to you to be understood
 So I want to tell you in plain English, just as plain as I can
 I can love you like a woman but, oh, also fight you like a man
 (Did you hear what I say?)
 (solo)
 (You better watch your step, baby)
 The very first thing you said to me, "I wear the pants"
 Then you turned around and you started cheating
 Soon as you got the chance (but listen)
 Baby, your time is very close at hand
 I can love you like a woman but, oh, also fight you like a man
 (And don't think nothin' 'bout it)
 I'm gonna get you back now, baby
 Oh yes, I'm gonna fight you, baby
 Oh, oh yeah, I'm gonna get you, baby
 Oh, you can't get by always
 Oh, oh yeah
