Song Lyrics

Written by James Young
Lead vocals by James Young

yeah

eight days a week with my baby at home
and you know that she`s my tender honey

baby I`ve been good
but you know it`s rough
when you`re spending all of my money

ain`t no disputin` I`m your man
you know I want to tell the world

you`re the only woman
show me what love can be
you`re the only woman
that understands a man like me

rock and roll is a way of life
but don`t you know it brings me down
music is my game but when I`m home
I treat a lady like she`s wearing a crown

stranded in the storm `round Lakewood Way
you know who comes to mind

she`s the only woman
show me what love can be
she`s the only woman
that understands a man like me

[guitar solo]

when I`m away with time to kill
just sittin` around gettin` high
thinking about your sweet sweet love
I wanna jump on a plane and fly

sweet little susie
show me what love can be
she`s the only woman
that understands a man
she understands a man
(like me)

she`s the only woman
she`s the only woman
she`s the only woman
