Like a good man should. © Mike de Velta 2011
Said Nobody
knows my woman like I do
I said nobody
knows my woman like I do
She’s the kindest woman
That I ever did meet
she’s the kindest woman
That I ever did meet
I said to my woman
“Oh please please won’t you marry me”
I’m just a humble person
no diamonds dripping of ‘a me
Said, “I’ll treat you right’
said, “I’ll treat you good”
“I wont argue and fight’
“I’ll treat you like a good man should”
solo
Would you carry my baby
settle and make a family
I’ll be a proud ol Daddy
and a’ sweet Mamma you will be
Said Nobody
knows my woman like I do
I said nobody
knows my woman like I do
Said, “I’ll treat you right’
said, “I’ll treat you good”
“I wont argue and fight’
“I’ll treat you like a good man should” x3

LYRICS
I am your neighbor
but I am a stranger
nobody knows me
knows my name
I’m a captive
like a bird
Im a captive
in a cage
In my reflection
I see an ol man
through dirty windows
a shadow in the rain
I’m tired of living
feel like I’m sinking
just lil ol me,and my nicotine stain
lil ol me, and my nicotine stain
What has become of my life, and my family,
Oh my wife, my loving wife
my children I can not see
can not see
What has become of my life, and my family,
Oh my wife, my loving wife
my children I can not see
can not see
No body told me
how my life would end
in such helpless misery
now I’m tired, tired and lonely
won’t somebody help me
rescue me
won’t somebody help me
and rescue me
What has become of my life, and my family,
Oh my loving wife
my children I can not see
can not see
