God knows I do, but I'll k** him dead 'fo I let him or anybody beat me All my life I had to fight I had to fight my daddy I had to fight my brothers, my cousins, my uncles too But I never, never, never, never, never, never thought I'd have to fight In my own house I feel sorry for you to tell you the truth You remind me of my momma Under yo' husband's thumb (naw) You under yo' husband's foot What he say go Why you so scared I'll never know.
