Lyrics Woman Talk - Carmen McRae

Woman Talk

Woman chatter, woman talk
Woman chatter, woman talk
We sit around in the shade
Using the good day God made
Just gossiping 'till its noon, soon
What phases you and what thrills me
And what we think our men do
One lazy palm leaf to fan
Two lazy ladies who just sit
Gossiping 'till its noon, soon
And if those men could only hear
What we ladies say
Woman chatter, woman talk
For men are to blame
Not understanding
They take, they break
They’re so demanding
Always they wreck
Always they take
Always they play the clown
They’re so incredibly lazy
They’re so lazy that its crazy
The things they do to you
They’re always out
Out and about the town, dear
And men are such liars
Such liars, it tires
And men are so stubborn
What can you do?
Really very stubborn
I put it to you
Oh if only they could hear us talking
Only hear us talking
See us sitting here
Sitting here and talking dear
We’re two girls with a grievance
What do we do?
We should leave those men alone
On their own, yes I’m putting it you
I’m putting it you dear
I’d put it to you
If they were only here
Right here where they could hear
I’d tell those men again
What they could do
While we just sit, alone
We sit alone in the shade
And talk the kind of talk
We girls keep-uh talking
To-hide-thought talk
Oh, if those men could only hear
What we ladies say
Woman chatter, woman talk
Woman chatter, woman talk
Woman chatter, woman talk
Away
