The Other Women / Cotton Eyed Joe-Nina Simone

The Other Woman-Nina Simone The other woman finds time to manicure her nails The other woman is perfect where her rival fails And she's never seen with pin curls in her hair - anywhere The other woman enchants her clothes with French perfume The other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room There are never toys scattered anywhere And when her old man comes to call He'll find her waiting like a lonesome queen 'Cause when she's by his side It's such a change from her old routine But The other woman will always cry herself to sleep The other woman will never have his love to keep And as years go by The other woman will spend her real life alone The other woman enchants her clothes with French perfume The other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room There are never toys scattered anywhere And when her old man comes to call He'll find her waiting like a lonesome queen 'Cause when she's by his side It's such a change from her old routine But The other woman enchants her clothes with French perfume The other woman will never have his love to keep And as years go by The other woman will spend her real life alone End
