She was once my woman but now she's gone away She was once my woman but now she's gone away She didn't even say where she was going It leaves me so uptight, it leaves me so uptight I can't bear the thought of just not knowing If everything's alright, if everything's alright She was once my woman but now she's gone away She was once my woman but now she's gone away If I could get her back without her knowing I'd never get uptight, I'd never get uptight And without a shadow of a doubt my love's still growing
Now everything's alright, everything's alright If I could get her back without her knowing I'd never get uptight, I'd never get uptight And without a shadow of a doubt my love's still growing Everything's alright, girl, everything's alright She was once my woman but now she's gone, gone away She was once my woman searching for a brighter day She was once my woman only trying to do, to do it away She was once my woman
