[Chorus:]
Lonely women make good lovers 
They all have mercy for good lookin' smooth talkin' men 
Lonely women make good lovers 
If you got a woman you better treat her just as good as you can 

Lots of times a lonely girl will go out on the town 
With no thoughts of evil on her mind 
She don't try to flat that seat 
Lord knows there's something every woman needs 
Friendly smile will do it, every time 

[Chorus] 

Once a woman's tasted love, she can't do without 
She'll search for something more 
When she gets cold 
And if her lips are wet with wine 
When it comes to lovin' time 
She'll trade her pride for something 
Warm to hold 

[Chorus]
