[Verse 1]
Help me understand why you hate that man so much
Girl, what did he do? Cheat and lie to you? Uh-huh

[Pre-Chorus]
We're talking dirt on his feet, tables on fire
Girls in the pool, her shirt in the dryer
He's saying, baby, calm down, she's just a friend
Come on, my girl, take me to bed

[Chorus]
Oh, and I curl up my hands
How you still love that man?
And I can't understand
Building a house on no woman's land

[Verse 2]
I guess I can't talk, I have been run over, too
Caught up in the words just like we're supposed to do

[Pre-Chorus]
And he's saying, baby, come back, I'll never lie
Sickness and health, you are my life
Then there's the coming home late, smelling like smoke
Calling you names, all promises broke
[Chorus]
Oh, and I curl up my hands
How you still love that man?
And I can't understand
Building a house on no woman's land

[Outro]
This is no woman's land
