Lirieke: Betty Wright. Clean Up Woman.
A clean up woman, is a woman who gets all the love
We girls leave behind the reason I know
So much about her, is because she picked up a man of mine
Chumpin' slick was my ruin 'cause I found out all I was doin'
I was makin' it easy for the clean up woman
To get my man's love, oh, yeah
Just makin' it easy for the clean up woman
To get my baby's love, uh-huh mmm hmm
I took this man's love and put it on a shelf
And like a fool, I thought I had him all to myself
When he needed love, I was out havin' fun
But I found out all I had done
Was made it easy for the clean up woman
To get my man's love, uh-huh
Yeah, that's what I did I made it easy for the clean up woman
To steal my baby's love, oh, yeah
The clean up woman will wipe his blues away
She'll give him penny lovin' 24 hours a day
The clean up woman, she'll sweep him off his feet
She's the one to take him in when you dump him in the street
So take a tip you better get hip to the clean up woman
'Cause she's tough, I mean she really cleans up
We girls leave behind the reason I know
So much about her, is because she picked up a man of mine
Chumpin' slick was my ruin 'cause I found out all I was doin'
I was makin' it easy for the clean up woman
To get my man's love, oh, yeah
Just makin' it easy for the clean up woman
To get my baby's love, uh-huh mmm hmm
I took this man's love and put it on a shelf
