I Wanna Testify

We met each other
Introduced by her brother
A cat I'd known all my life

Partying and dancing
Moonlight and romancing
Soon to be husband and wife

My friends call me crazy
Her folks call her lazy
But our love counts for life

If we stuck together
The pressures we would weather
Not knowing we were in for a fall

Women and drinking, loving and thinking
They do it to you everytime
Women and drinking, loving and thinking
They do it to you everytime

Find yourself going down down down down
I'm going down down
I'm going down down down down down down

Ow - I just wanna testify
What the women don't owe to me
I just wanna testify
What the women don't owe to me

We had a boy, my pride and joy
I took a job day and night
Tired and wired, one day I got fired
That's when we started to fight

With time on his hands, a man ain't a man
And all he loves he starts to neglect
I didn't go far, straight to the bar
And drank up all my self respect

Women and drinking, loving and thinking
They do it to you everytime
Women and drinking, loving and thinking
They do it to you everytime

Find yourself going down down down down
I'm going down down
I'm going down down down down down down

Ow, I just wanna testify
What the women don't owe to me
I just wanna testify
What the women don't owe to me

Yeah, let me get on back to my story now

Yeah, cared about no one
But my wife and my son
That's when I started to roam
Bar room to bedroom
It happened so soon
I found myself on my own

She went back to her mother
I fought with her brother, yeah
And in my heart I know I was wrong
Please pay attention to the words that I mention, yeah
And listen to the moral of the song

I just wanna testify
