"Clean Up Woman" by Betty Wright

A clean up woman
Is a woman who
Gets all the love we girls leave behind.
The reason I know
So much about her
Is because she picked up a man of mine.

Chumpin Slick
Was my ruin
Cause I found out all I was doin
Was makin it easy
For the clean up woman
To get my mans love, oh, yeah.

Just makin it easy
For the clean up woman
To get my babys love, uh-huh.

Mmm-hmm.

I took this mans love and put it on a shelf
And like a fool, I thought I had him all to myself.
When he needed love, I was out havin fun
But I found out all I had done
Was made it easy
For the clean up woman
To get my mans love, uh-huh.
Yeah, thats what I did.
I made it easy
For the clean up woman
To steal my babys love, oh, yeah.

The clean up woman
Will wipe his blues away.
Shell give him penny lovin
24 hours a day.
The clean up woman,
Shell sweep him off his feet.
Shes the one
To take him in when you dump him in the street.
So take a tip,
You better get hip
To the clean up woman,
Cause shes tough.
I mean she really cleans up.
