Bernadette Peters — Woman Be Wise

Oh, woman be wise Keep your mouth shut Don't advertise your man Don't ever sit around holdin' no conversation Explainin' what your good man do to you Cause men are scarce these days And it ain't no good To go talking them around in your neighborhood Gotta be wise Keep your mouth shut Don't advertise your man Don't be a fool Don't advertise your man Now, your best girlfriend She may look like a highbrow But I seen her changing her clothes At least three times a day What do you think she's doin' now While you're so far away? She's lovin' your man in your own damn bed Call for the doctor, investigate your head Gotta be wise Keep your mouth shut Don't advertise your man She's lovin' your man in your own damn bed Call for the doctor, examine your head Oh, woman be wise Keep your mouth shut Don't advertise your man Woman be wise Keep your mouth shut Don't advertise your man Don't be a fool Don't advertise your man
