Take This Woman

I found myself on my knees in prayer

The consequence of my deep despair

Now I must speak, get it off my chest

It ain't no joke and it ain't no jest

Every night she would come to me

But her demands brought disharmony

I said, "You can't bring your drums to bed,

Your rhythm method's gonna leave me dead."

Got to take this woman

Cos she's a whole lotta woman

Why don't you take this woman

Take this woman lock her away

It would be churlish of me to complain

But caviar every night is insane

I'm fit to burst, I'm not in the mood

But she say, "Lie down babe, I

wanna talk to you."

Well I'm not fond of your family ties

The hangman's noose in your mother's eyes

You chatterbox like a talking head

Je ne comprends pas the words that you said

Take this woman

Cos she's a whole lotta woman

Why don't you take this woman

Take this woman lock her away

Don't want to love you

I really tried

But I'm hook line and sinkered deeply fried

I've got to admit that with all your faults

We touch and it feels like a million volts

Listen - I realised I'd made a big mistake

I'm only human for heaven's sake

Lord give me strength don't let me falter

I'm gonna take her to the alter

And I'll take this woman

Cos she's a whole lotta woman

I'm gonna take this woman

Take this woman lock her away

I'm gonna take this woman

Cos she's a whole lotta woman

I'm gonna take this woman

Take this woman lock her away

Woh, yeah....
