Sammy Davis Jr.
A Woman Is a Sometime Thing

[Verse 1]
Listen to your daddy warn you
Before you start a-travelin'
Woman may born you
Love you and mourn you

[Chorus]
But a woman is a sometime thing
Yes, a woman is a sometime thing

[Bridge]
Your mammy is first to name you
She’ll tie you to her apron strings
She'll shame you and she'll blame you
’Til your woman comes to claim you

[Chorus]
'Cause a woman is a sometime thing
Yes, a woman is a sometime thing

[Verse 2]
Don't you ever let a woman grieve you
'Cause she's got your wedding ring
She'll love you and deceive you
Take your clothes and leave you
[Chorus]
'Causе a woman is a sometime thing
Yes, a woman is a somеtime thing (Uh yah)

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Don't you, don’t you, don’t you ever let a woman grieve you
'Cause she’s got your weddin' ring
Man, she'll love you and deceive you
Take your vines and leave you

[Chorus]
'Cause a woman is a sometime thing
Yes, a woman is a sometime thing
Yes, a woman is a sometime thing
Yes, a woman is a sometime thing

[Outro]
A woman is a sometime thing
