Every Hungry Woman

Yeah — Sad eyed woman

boogie ’til the break of dawn

Yeah — Long a-bout the break of day — Yeah

oh— your man has up and gone—

You got 13 lovely children

No proud father knocking at your door

Yeah— but every hungry woman

has been in your place before

Yeah — the doctor keep [or "kept"] calling

woah — found you’d fall-en

[alternate lyrics: found you bawlin’]

Yeah — you backed him in the corner

oh — you’re doing what you wanna

You got 14 lovely children

No proud father knocking at your door

Yeah— but every hungry woman

has been in your place before

*** Guitar Solo ***

You got 15 lovely children

No proud father knocking at your door

Yeah— but every hungry woman

has been in your place before

Yeah — the doctor keep [or "kept"] calling

woah — found you’d fall-en

[alternate lyrics: found you bawlin’]

Yeah — you backed him in the corner

oh — you’re doing what you wanna

You got 16 lovely children

No proud father knocking at your door

Yeah— but every hungry woman

has been in your place before

Oh– yeah

Sad eyed woman

ohhhh
