Only Women Bleed Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Man's got his woman to take his seed
He's got the power
Oh, she's got the need
She spends her life through
Pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner or anything she can

[Pre-Chorus]
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

[Chorus]
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed

[Verse 2]
Man makes your hair gray
He's your life's mistake
All you're really looking for is an even break
He lies right at you
You know you hate this game
He slaps you once in a while
You live and love in pain
[Pre-Chorus]
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

[Chorus]
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed

[Bridge]
Black eyes all of the time
Don't spend a dime
Clean up the grime
And you there
Down on your knees
Begging me please
Come watch me bleed

[Chorus]
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
[Outro]
Man's got his woman to take his seed
He's got the power
She's got the need

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
