lyrics

You seem to be hedging your bets.
You sure don’t put your eggs in one basket.
You seem to be hedging your bets.
I’ve got a question but I sure won’t ask it.
You take directions from a road map
But beyond that, you can’t see.

This type of woman don’t understand
Why you can’t just play your hand.
Oh this type of woman don’t understand
Why you don’t play your hand.
But this woman don’t need you
Cause she’s a one-man-band.

And this type of woman won’t stick around
Waiting for you to stick in the knife.
This type of woman won’t stick around
Waiting for you to stick in the knife
And this type of woman
Only comes around once in a life.

Your map is getting soggy, your dog ears are floppy
You lost your way but you just keep walkin’
Your map is soggy, your dog ears are floppy
You lost your way but you’re still walkin’
You’ve got a question
But beyond that, you can’t see.

This type of woman don’t understand
Why you can’t just play your hand.
Oh this type of woman don’t understand
Why you don’t play your hand.
But this woman don’t need you
Cause she’s a one-man-band. (2 tags)
