Second-Hand Woman

B.B. King

Compositor: Joe Sample / Will Jennings

She told me she'd been loved before
If i took a little less
She'd give a little more
She told me she'd been hurt a lot
But somehow she still knew
What a woman's love was for

She said if i would take a second-hand woman
The night wouldn't be so long
She said if i would take a second-hand woman
She'd put love where love belonged
I said that's alright with me
I'll do everything i can
After all baby i'm a second-hand man

I showed her where i hid the scars
From all the battles i had fought
In lost and lonely wars
It took al night for us to understand
Life had led to us
Loves old soft and healing hand
