Allen Toussaint - She Once Belonged To Me lyrics

Don't you talk about the lady Don't you talk about her, please Don't you talk about the lady She once belonged to me Don't you talk about the woman, oh no She's got qualities you can't see Don't you talk about the lady She once belonged to me (She's not just another woman) No, no, no, she almost beared my child Yes, she did (She's not just another woman) No no But she only stayed a little while Just like the sunshine in the mornin' She lightens up my day Even though we both knew She was just pa**in' through Lord, how I tried to make her stay (She's not just another woman) No, no, no, she almost beared my child Yes, she did (She's not just another woman) No no But she only stayed a little while (Talk about the pain) (Talk about the same) Please don't talk about the lady She once belonged to me Can't you see now (Talk about the hate) (Talk about the weight) But please don't say nothin' 'Bout the woman She's got qualities you can't see Yes, sirree now
