Common Law Wife

George Clinton

Now girls I don't mean to sound defensive
But my lady says she's tired of being looked down on
She's tired of the whispers, the phonies, and you sympathisers
And oh yeah, the catty girls with the gold bands on
Now this is supposed to be the day of let it be
Where all should be free
But she says some of you girls are so jealous hearted
That you just won't let her be
But dig here

Go on girls flaunt your synthetic securities
My lady said that's the way it's gonna be
She said if common law is good enough for her man
Common law is the way it's gonna be

She's my common law wife
And she's proud of it
She said if her man likes it
Ya'll gonna love it

She's my common law wife
And I'm proud of it
Her man likes it
Don't ya know she loves it

Now she used to feel guilt(?) and shame
And my conscience often bothered me
But we pleged(?) some security(?) on ewch others soul
And it sure enough set us free

Just because we live a common law life
And we didn't walk down the aisle
You think that make your written contract
More valid and more worthwhile

Go on girls flaunt your synthetic securities
My lady said that's the way it's gonna be
But if common law is good enough for my woman
Common law is godd enough for me

She's my common law wife
And I'm proud of it
Her man likes it
Ya'll gonna love it

She's my common law wife
And she's proud of it
She said if her man likes it
Don't ya know she loves it

Ooooohhh
Ooohoooohh

And I don't agree(?) but it's made from in our hearts
And it's something that just don't need to be legalized
Cause if a man wants to up and split
Jailhouse(?) and marriage license won't keep him by your side

Common law wife
And I'm proud of it
Her man likes it
Ya'll oughta love it

She's my common law wife
And she's proud of it
She said if her man likes it
Don't ya know she loves it
