Only Women Bleed

John Farnham


Man got his woman, to take his seed
He got the power, she got the need
She spends her life through
Pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner, anything she can
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

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
Slaps you once in a while, and you live
And love in pain
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed

Black eyes, all of the time, don't spend
A dime and clean up this grime
And you there, down on your knees
Begging to please
Come watch me bleed

Man got his woman, to take his seed
He got the power, she got the need
She spends her life through
Pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner, anything she can
She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all

Only women bleed
