Martha Say

Martha say she don’t need no stinking man making no decisions for her
She don’t need his money, she don’t need him between the sheets
She ain’t gonna sleep on the edge of the bed for no stinking man
And that’s the way she lives 'cause I saw her last night
Pouring water on a drowning man in the moonlight, saying:
Hi-de-hi-de-hi, brother
Hi-de-hi-de-hey now, Martha
Hi-de-hi-de-hi, sister
Say what, hey you, look out, Martha
Martha say she don’t need no revolver to shoot some idiot down
She can do it with her eyes, she can do it with her smile
She can do it with a conversation just walking down the hall
Man, now ain’t that the truth 'cause i saw her take a bite out of
Some macho dude laying some corn ball line on her last night, saying:
Hi-de-hi-de-hi, brother
Hi-de-hi-de-hey now, Martha
Hi-de-hi-de-hi, sister
Say what, hey you, look out, Martha
Hi-de-hi-de-hi, brother.
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi, brother.)
Hi-de-hi-de-ho, sister.
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi, yeah.)
Hi-de-hi-de-hi.
(Hi-de-hi-de-ho, yeah.)
Hi-de-hi-de-hi, Martha
Say what, look out, shake it up Martha
Martha say say she ain’t changin', no nothin' for nobody for
No damn good reason
It’s the way that she wants it, it’s the way that she gets it
Well, the girl loves playing hardball, it leaves me in a
No win situation saying:
Hi-de-hi-de-hi, brother
Hi-de-hi-de-hey now, Martha
Hi-de-hi-de-hi, sister
Say what, hey you, look out, Martha
Martha say she don’t need no stinking man making no decisions for her
