Lyrics Breaking Point - Etta James

Breaking Point

Every woman, yeah
Every woman
Got a limit, yeah
Sang with me girl
Ladies, have you ever had a man who push you when you low?
You wanna stay out at night, and don’t care how you feel
Instead of manin' up, oh, I said ooh
I-I can’t concentrate, you so petty you
You stay touchin' my last nerve, my friends say, what’s wrong with you girl?
I guess, what I’m really tryna say is
Every woman has a breaking point, ya’ll (Breaking point)
Hey, I know you know, some women can be lied to
And cheated on, and beated on
Somebody know, hey
Every woman has a breaking point, ya’ll (Breaking point)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, tell me why we put up with that?
You can’t forget that, see I done did that
But this time, there’s a limit to my love
(There's a limit, there’s a limit… there’s a limit, there’s a limit)
There’s a limit to my love
(There's a limit, there’s a limit… there’s a limit, there’s a limit)
(Now listen here)
Now baby, don’t push me 'cause I’m close to the edge
Today your baby momma called, said she boxin' up yo shit (Yo shit)
When you barely pleasin' me, how you gon' take care of yo kids?
Now I gotta contemplate
I hate to say it, but I wanted your last name
My momma said what’s wrong with you girl
Every woman has a breaking point, ya’ll (Breaking point)
Hey, I know you know, some women can be lied to
And cheated on, and beated on
Somebody know, hey
Every woman has a breaking point, ya’ll (Breaking point)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, tell me why we put up with that?
You can’t forget that, see I done did that
But this time, there’s a limit to my love
(There's a limit, there’s a limit… there’s a limit, there’s a limit)
There’s a limit to my love
(There's a limit, there’s a limit… there’s a limit, there’s a limit)
Now ladies, we really should be mad at ourselves
'Cause see, some women just tolerate way too damn much
Now I know we gotta choose our battles
But damn it, every woman got a breaking point
And see the next time he’s testin' yo love
You put your finger in his face and you tell him
Say my love has a limit (Say my love has a limit)
Say my love has a limit (Say my love has a limit)
Said if your love has a limit, girl (Said if your love has a limit)
Say my love has a limit, yeah (Say my love has a limit)
Say my love has a limit (Say my love has a limit)
Say my love has a limit (Say my love has a limit)
Said if your love has a limit, girl (Said if your love has a limit)
Say my love has a limit, yeah (Say my love has a limit)
Every woman has a breaking point ya’ll (Breaking point)
Hey, I know you know, some women can be lied to
And cheated on, and beated on
Somebody know, hey
Every woman has a breaking point, ya’ll (Breaking point)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, tell me why we put up with that?
You can’t forget that, see I done did that
But this time, there’s a limit to my love
(There's a limit, there’s a limit… there’s a limit, there’s a limit)
There’s a limit to my love
(There's a limit, there’s a limit… there’s a limit, there’s a limit)
(Now listen here)
