I remember how attractive my Former Co-workers Wife was, He told me to come by at a certain time but he wasn't there. I went to the door and She said He went to the Store but you can come in if you want. I told Her I'd wait in My Car till He comes back. When he came up I got out of My Car we both went inside conduct our business online. The Next Day He said: Man I appreciate what you did, My wife Said you could come in...You did Right, you could of come in I was on the way back, but that was respectful. Still that side of respect of I wasn't an ain't Ish type of Man, I could or try to use that to my advantage or disadvantage!
This song is a cold piece. The fact the he showed up to Sam Cookes funeral with Sams wife/widow, in his car and his clothes… this song was his confession. This is the original “Confessions”.
This song is just a reminder that you NEVER brag about what you have at home and NEVER underestimate human nature. I trust my friends but in regard to my woman, i will never put myself in a position where i have to find out that I can't.
Wow!!! After reading these comments I wonder was this how Jerry Springer got his show idea.. Does anyone know if there's ever been a movie about their lives?
I can't believe Gorillaz even make songs with this backstabbing moron and Damon Albarn produce his final studio album The Bravest Man In The Universe released two years before his death.
I hear it as a song about someone who is realizing how two faced he's been, or is being. At least it's honest, unlike a lot of pap that tries to convince you everything is fine.
Bobby Womack that is one of the greatest "Soul singers" , and a legend he is the same person as always remember that ", True soulful sounds that can't be duplicated".
I love Bobby's music. It's so honest, truthful, genuine, gritty and real as hell. That's why it's called SOUL music! It cuts through the crap & speaks directly to the soul. I wish the music of today was as real & gritty. Much thanks Mr. Womack. RIP!
You read it, better believe it, But! He spoke the truth & He is the 1st and original poet, That you can’t take from him. Piece of work- yes, Cold-100, But damn he can sing.🎤💯
The power that Bobby had in his voice was like no other!!! You could feel his soul when he sang. He even said in an old song it wasn't about money but about feeling. He wasn't lying!!!
2024 hey he kept it 💯😂😢 rip Bobby thanks sweetie for all of your beautiful music I’ll always be a fan of your beautiful music 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 , oh let’s b honest I’m quite sure that some of you all have felt that same way but you just kept it to yourself!!!😂😂😂
Great song! Bobby Womack was a great poet, song writer, singer! As a young man of age 21 who married Cooke's widow after Cooke's death. Cooke lost his life while cheating with another woman who was not his wife. This is a romantic song lamenting about someone who is falling in love with his best friend's wife. It is a natural occurrence happening for some or could happen for some others. In my opinion this song is not necessarily related to what happened when he was age 21. This is a great love song depicting the complex complications of falling in love. One of Womack's best songs! I love it!
This song relates to how relationships have been conducted especially in a concept of a marriage. If an extra marital affair occurs, it a sin according to God's Word.
He was creeping with Sam Cook's wife behind his back. This Song by Bobby Womack, 1985, was him telling on himself. Womack was a favored student of Sam Cooke, the rich & influential R&B singer-songwriter. He was murdered in 1964. Just 3 months later, Womack married Cook's widow. Bobby Womack then took the hot mess to the next level, sleeping with Sam Cooke's daughter and wife. Womack is one of the most diabolical cats to ever croon a tune.🤦♂🤦♂
Well... if you think the “backstory” of this song has anything to do with Sam Cooke, then fortunately your “speechless” problem should be clearing up very soon... Sam Cooke was already dead (for 20 years) - when this song was written, recorded, and released. The song has nothing to do with Sam Cooke. The song is about something else. And someone else. And btw, if you think it is just a random occurrence, that this video poster has your misinformed comment featured at the top of this comments page - think again.
RIP Bobby Womack!!! Your songs will forever live in my heart because they are a part of the memories of my childhood. Thank you for your contribution to great music!!!! To his family and friends, I pray for peace and comfort until you see him again! God Bless!
Working for the state highway i meet a new kid from Jamaica . Show him the rope of the job pick him up for work and all that. We did over time one day so I told him come chill and get sleep on the couch rather than ride all the way back to brooklyn . Introduce him to wifey but then a she left . Later In the evening he inquire (where da asle eye gal ) in that Jamaican acent ) I tell him don't worry about my women. Another day we riding to work and he play that song but I only knew if you think your Ionely now. Seeing how giddy ,and captivated he was about the song and how much he liked it. Plus peeping how much he was a Playa. Yall know he was NEVER invited back to crib lol
I wish he didn't trust me so much, Great Song, She has a Captivating Soul that attracts all of you, Don't Be so hard on yourself, she knew more than you think
my mom and step dad use to play the hell out this song when I was growing up truly he shouldn't have trust him too much . now a days people don't care they just want what you got
No it really doesn't come much better than that! Picture this. Long empty freeway driving into the setting sun and this record comes on the Radio. A great life is made up of moments like that. Thank you Bobby for always being just one press of a button away! Bless you man.
The truth is that in a different time, musicians sang and wrote about real situations in their lives. Same as older comedians who spoke about their experiences before the media could crucify them for being human and making the same mistakes as other people.
It is necessary, when making a promotional video, for the artist to lip-synch to his or her studio recording. This is what Bobby's doing here, but damn, he's living the song 100%! A charismatic and convincing performance by one of my favorite soul men.
Believe it or not this is actually a different vocal session than the album version, he is actually singing here. You can even hear the difference in the vocals. I copy pasted the relevant part of the article below. 👇🏽 "Womack also shot his first-ever music video with the song which showed Womack singing the song live in a recording studio (the recorded version had different vocals)."
You are so right. His conscience made him sing that song. When you steal your best friend's wife that says a lot about your character. Very good artist rest in peace the two of you
His personal life aside, Bobby Womack made some really great hits......like this one. I remember loving this one during my youthful days, and appreciating the content for the brutal honesty of the situation. Talk about being attracted to / falling for people you ought not to (smile).
I love this song!!! Hell let’s just keep it 💯 I’m sure that a lot of us have felt this way some time in our lives, he just sung it for us 😂Thanks BOBBY for all your beautiful music well done RIP I love you sweetie always 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
One reason why men should never tell their friends about the good loving they get from their woman. A man who really cares about his woman will never ever tell his homeboys about that "Good Good" Slurrrrrrrp, he gets from her.
Free And Blessed the same goes for women, STOP telling your girlfriends what goes on in the bedroom between you & your man, shhhh!!! Otherwise you're be sorry. ..
The daughter also. At first i was like ok they both loved Sam and in their grief blah blah blah......but the daughter too!?! That is jusy grimy pure and simple
I knew about the song growing up, but never really listened to the words. I saw a video of the backstory of how he was cheating with Sam Cooke's wife, went to his funeral with Sam's suit, married his wife AND slept with his DAUGHTER too. That's beyond gangsta! And he sang this song with PASSION. He felt it and had no remorse.
"Yield not to temptation. For yielding is sin. Each victory will help you... some other to win. Fight manfully onward. Dark passion subdue. Look ever to Jesus ....He will carry you through." (Bobby was being tempted in his own mind. Yep. Temptation sort of talks like that. Well, if he keeps his hands to himself and go the other way, he will be a-okay. We all get tempted sometimes, but what you do about it is what counts. That song I was quoting...I love that song.)
Bobby Womack married Sam Cooke's widow 3 months after his death. He also fooled around with Linda Cooke's daughter (until the widow caught them). Linda Cooke would later marry Cecil Womack. Cecil Womack and Curtis Womack both were married to and had kids by Mary Wells Man... them Womack brothers were something else
I could never sleep with a woman that my brother has slept with. Even more get into a serious relationship or marry her. I know when you meet someone that they have already slept with someone else and that's cool but not my family.
💯 this sh---t, happens everyday! Okc, promoted Bobby Woman and Altrena Grayson two shows and I had the pleasure to be a part of that production and we sold out within a month🎉
I love this song. Based on true incidents that has happened in people's lives. I've seen this kind of stuff happening in real life, where this kind of wrong mishaps has happened with some friends of mine who were married, the husbands best friend started messing around with his wife. It all ended in a divorce. So sad, because the husband and wife has 4 dependant kids, all under 10 years old.
Bobby Womack was a cold piece of work. He kept it 100.
Nah he kept it 110th street

So much power and soul in his voice... he will be GREATLY missed.
I'm still BLESSED from dem days,,,, and in the early days of the 80s I lived this same song..WOW! But I told him what she wanted and made me DO... WOW
His personal life aside, Bobby Womack made some really great hits......like this one. I remember loving this one during my youthful days, and appreciating the content for the brutal honesty of the situation.
Talk about being attracted to / falling for people you ought not to (smile).
Indeed Corey, indeed....
I love this song!!! Hell let’s just keep it 💯 I’m sure that a lot of us have felt this way some time in our lives, he just sung it for us 😂Thanks BOBBY for all your beautiful music well done RIP I love you sweetie always 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Why are you keep on fucking comment on this video. God get your slow class on trick.
Not everybody a piece of trash… kmt
One reason why men should never tell their friends about the good loving they get from their woman.
A man who really cares about his woman will never ever tell his homeboys about that "Good Good" Slurrrrrrrp, he gets from her.
😭😭😭😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Free And Blessed exactly
It has nothing to do with what u tell your so called friends, if its one of them kind of friends, they will try no matter what
Free And Blessed the same goes for women, STOP telling your girlfriends what goes on in the bedroom between you & your man, shhhh!!! Otherwise you're be sorry. ..
it can go either way. Bobby didn't kill Sam or take her she was a widow when bobby married her
This jam really says it all , what a situation man !! Rest In Peace my brother, Womack brings back so many memories!!
One of the REALIST songs ever!!!
You got that right
... Translation, you'd smash your husband's homeboy?
@@javonkelly4996 i wouldn't...no
@@javonkelly4996 lmao I was thinking the same thing 😂😂
The daughter also. At first i was like ok they both loved Sam and in their grief blah blah blah......but the daughter too!?! That is jusy grimy pure and simple
The thing i like about Bobby Womack he always kept it real 💯..
The most disrespectful song ever😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 he said we got a problem😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
And most honest at the same time 🤷🏾♂️
Makes me look at my own damn friends a little different.
I swear, it's not my will.... but it's something bout the way he makes me feel.... ooh chile. ....
Man for me to be currently in this situation and this song hit my algorithm 😄 Thank you Mr. Womack
Repent! 😂
Resist 🤣
sheeesh
lol
I knew about the song growing up, but never really listened to the words. I saw a video of the backstory of how he was cheating with Sam Cooke's wife, went to his funeral with Sam's suit, married his wife AND slept with his DAUGHTER too. That's beyond gangsta! And he sang this song with PASSION. He felt it and had no remorse.
"Yield not to temptation. For yielding is sin. Each victory will help you... some other to win. Fight manfully onward. Dark passion subdue. Look ever to Jesus ....He will carry you through." (Bobby was being tempted in his own mind. Yep. Temptation sort of talks like that. Well, if he keeps his hands to himself and go the other way, he will be a-okay. We all get tempted sometimes, but what you do about it is what counts. That song I was quoting...I love that song.)
Maybe he was cold but he still had one of the 3 greatest soul voices, ever. the dude could write some lyrics. I love "Too Close for Comfort"
I've never cheated nor do I believe in in adultry this is just a 100% confessional honest song that sounds A-1 and I can respect the truth.
I've just read about Bobby Womack on FB and decided to come have a listen what's this song all about...daaaammmnnn !! Dirty Dawg 😮
Still here in 2020🤣💪🏾, this cat cold tho🤦🏿♂️
I'm not here because of dc young fly. I heard this when i was a child. I'm here because i have good taste in music. 💙
Same lmao. Thinking bout my grandma old cassettes😂😭
Word
Facts !!...I was jitterbug teen in the Army during the '80s, Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indiana
K Money me too!
I'm here because I have good taste too🤗🙌
Bobby Womack married Sam Cooke's widow 3 months after his death. He also fooled around with Linda Cooke's daughter (until the widow caught them).
Linda Cooke would later marry Cecil Womack.
Cecil Womack and Curtis Womack both were married to and had kids by Mary Wells
Man... them Womack brothers were something else
I could never sleep with a woman that my brother has slept with. Even more get into a serious relationship or marry her. I know when you meet someone that they have already slept with someone else and that's cool but not my family.
yep all of them scandalous except Sam and his wife killed him sad I hope that bitch rots in hell
Learn something new everyday....I didnt know this

Sam's wife did not kill him. Sam was killed at the Hacienda Motel by Bertha Franklin, the motel manager.
Sam's mistress killed him in a hotel room.
💯 this sh---t, happens everyday! Okc, promoted Bobby Woman and Altrena Grayson two shows and I had the pleasure to be a part of that production and we sold out within a month🎉
With friends like that...who needs enemies.
Amen to that
Yes indeed.......
@snake man who's we? Speak for your damn self.
snake man that ain’t nothing I partake in clown. Blame both of them! Your name is “snake man” though so I wouldn’t expect much from you.

Is it me or did it seem almost mandatory in the 80's to have a music video of the musician recording his song live in a studio.
lol but I miss it rather than the trash I see on BET . I wish it would go back to this.

I love this song. Based on true incidents that has happened in people's lives. I've seen this kind of stuff happening in real life, where this kind of wrong mishaps has happened with some friends of mine who were married, the husbands best friend started messing around with his wife. It all ended in a divorce. So sad, because the husband and wife has 4 dependant kids, all under 10 years old.
