janis joplin - a woman left lonely lyrics

a woman left lonely will soon grow tired of waiting,
she ll do crazy things, yeah, on lonely occasions.
a simple conversation with a new man now and again
makes a touchy situation when a good things come to an end. and when she gets lonely, she s thinking bout that man,
she knows he s taking her for granted, yeah yeah,
honey, she doesn t understand, no no no no!

well, the fevers of the night, they burn an unloved woman
yeah, those red-hot flames try to push old love aside.
a woman left lonely, is just the victim of a man, yes she is.
when he can t keep up his own world, good lord,
she s got to do the best that she can, yeah!
a woman left lonely, lord, that lonely girl,
lord, lord, lord!
