I Took Your Woman

Saxton Mills (c) 2007



I took your woman

When you were out all night

She kept her legs tight

She danced in her tears and danced in my light

And then you tried to slip in for a bite

But she said, “No thanks. I’m alright.”



I took your woman

Provided stability when you ran free

Fed her when she was hungry

Opened doors she could not see

When you brought diamonds that sparkled while on your knees

Asking her to open up with your “Please, baby baby please.”

She said no because her heart is with me



I took your woman

Holding her hand when she was alone

Waiting by the phone hoping you’d come home

Rocked her to sleep with my mellow tone

And when you finally called, she just looked at the phone



I took your woman

I put a smile on her face when you were away

Your boys thought it was cool because she let you play

All the while she thanks me

For the roof I help her maintain

Clothes on her back

A bank account that stays stacked

And your sporadic take out containers

Can’t hold a candle to the full course meal I

Prepare before her…in front of her enemies

In fact, your happy meal is no longer smiling



I took your woman

Some call me divine intervention

You…you can fall on your needs and call me Father

Because until you do right by the gift that I made out of you

Your nights may be filled with pleasures

But you will never inherit the kingdom of treasures

I’ll keep your woman in the palm of my hands

And make her the ruby of the land while you…

Just keep on dancing to your tune

The music will stop one day…and you’ll be on the

Floor alone…wondering…who will be there to see your last dance.
