Intro 1

Verse 1
C 
I'd like to dedicate this song
F 
to all the women out there
C 
Who if they haven't already
Just might fall victim
to some slick -talking man's
F 
little weak story
And I got the idea for this tune
C 
when I heard a conversation
that a fellow was running down
F 
to a married sister.
C 
He said to her, he said, Miss Lady,
so you don't know it,
but your husband is running around
F 
on you like a dog.
C 
And you're just too young
and fine and pretty
to be sitting out here going
F 
to waste like this.
You ought to get on out on the town
and have some fun.
C 
And he says, I'm just a man
to take you out
F 
and show you that good time.
And I loved the answer
the sister gave him so much
C 
F 
I decided to write a song and sing about it.
If all the sisters out there listening,
C 
take heed to this because you
might get in a similar situation
to this one day
F 
and you'll know how to handle yourself.
C 
She told a man that day, she said, Mr. I,
F 
I don't have to go out with you, no,
C 
And take a chance on havin'
F 
my reputation
C 
Just so you can keep comin' by my house
F 
To tell me what my man is doin'
Em 
Dm 
C 
Cause I   know what he's doin'
G 
Em 
Dm 
C 
And I know just where he goes
Em 
I know how many children
Dm 
C 
he's got by the woman
Em 
You ain't tellin' me noth
Dm 
C 
in' that I don't know
F 
G 
You see, mister, mister,
C 
I'm all wo man
That's what she told the man
F 
She said, I  don't go around
G 
I don't go around doin'
C 
dirt for dirt now
Am 
Cause if I   did, if I did,
C 
let me tell you something
Am 
D 
A lot of wo men in this town
G 
C 
G 
C 
would sure get hurt
She said, you see mister,
my mama told me something a
long time ago
F 
She said, daughter,
don't ever lower your standards and morals
C 
trying to get even with no man and
F 
I remember the words she told me
C 
to hold up for the woman side
F 
and I sat my husband down many night
and told him about this
because you see mister
C 
when sex becomes the boss
F 
everything else in the world is lost and I told my
C 
husband I said baby I know you love young pretty
But Henry, you just done got old.
F 
You can't do what you
used to do no more.
And you got schooled
C 
being a  sex slave.
Because what you gon' spit out in Dr.
F 
Bill's on them young girls,
you'll wind up putting it in a coffin
in the grave one day.
C 
Henry ain't stopped to realize
that he's over here now.
F 
And I've been preaching that man going
on putting out 30 years now.
C 
You see, he don't realize that time...
Look at the clock.
Look, man ain't realize,
F 
time sure brings about a change
I just wish I could get that through
his thick head... time
C 
Look at the clock,
look at the clock, look at the
Em 
F 
Time sure brings about a   change
oh, my heart would just
won't know to half stop
C 
But, you see
Time the clock
Add time
Look at the clock
You'll see
The whole time
Time
F 
C 
F 
Time brings about a change
C 
F 
Lord, time sure brings about a change,
yes it does
Dm 
F 
Yes it does, yes it does
C 
Time
I've been trying to
get that hug from the man,
you see that?
F 
That's what the woman told the man
He can't keep this up forever
C 
Time
F 
Time brings about a change, yes it does
C 
Oh, oh
Time, time, time
F 
Time brings about a change,
C 
yes it does oh yeah
