What can I say... The rhythm section, the horns, the strings, Millie... No one can put an album together like her. Her phrasing is faultless and so emotive. Listening to the whole album at least once a day This song is dynamite.
Oh my...Ran across this song... When it started to play. I was singing it. Haven't heard this since I was a child. I remeber the 8track... Couldn't believe I remembered the words... I didn't understand the lyrics back then... too young. I do now...
lord my dad had this album......this woman can cuss good when she is ready. I remember she did a song about a man and another woman and her paying the bills and i cannot remember the song for the life of me
I heard this song for the first time 20 years ago when I was still a child, and I liked it then.. but never knew I would live the same story...... Gosh, I wish I could say this to my man... I dont have the guts.
At 1:00 the arrangement kills me. The horns and piano tell the story. My mom had this album when I was a kid. Great song and Arrangement. Millie Jackson has a great voice.
I haven't seen the correct lyrics to this magnificent song anywhere, so here goes: (Spoken) Darling, I met your wife today, and I said a whole lot of terrible things that I should be sorry for, but I'm not. I'm ashamed but I'm not sorry, simply because... I'm tired of having to sneak around, everywhere we go I wanna feel free to be with you, I don't care who knows How long do you think that I can live this way Meeting you only at night time, and longing for you every day? There's gotta be some changes made Right now in your life You gotta make up your mind It's either me or your wife, because... I'm tired of hiding Tired of those second-class places Tired of hiding from old familiar faces I got to know right now if it's ever gonna end Or have all of my worries just began I'm tired of having to be the one to understand But she's got the papers on you You're not even my man I'm tired of having to spend all my holidays alone Whenever I want you here with me She wants you at home There's gotta be some changes made Right now in your life You gotta make up your mind It's either me or your wife, because... I'm tired of hiding Tired of those second-class places Tired of hiding from old familiar faces I got to know right now if it's ever gonna end Or have all of my worries just began I'm tired of hiding, tired, so tired... There's gotta be some changes made Right now in your life You gotta make up your mind It's either me or your wife, because... I'm tired of hiding Tired of those second-class places Tired of hiding from old familiar faces I got to know right now if it's ever gonna end Or have all of my worries just began
"All the things like walking the dog and talking to the neighbors while he washes the car, put together, are more important to a man than being with the woman he loves." A book my first wife gave me before we married.

I haven't seen the correct lyrics to this magnificent song anywhere, so here goes:
(Spoken)
Darling, I met your wife today, and I said a whole lot of terrible things that I should be sorry for, but I'm not. I'm ashamed but I'm not sorry, simply because...
I'm tired of having to sneak around, everywhere we go
I wanna feel free to be with you, I don't care who knows
How long do you think that I can live this way
Meeting you only at night time, and longing for you every day?
There's gotta be some changes made
Right now in your life
You gotta make up your mind
It's either me or your wife, because...
I'm tired of hiding
Tired of those second-class places
Tired of hiding from old familiar faces
I got to know right now
if it's ever gonna end
Or have all of my worries just began
I'm tired of having to be the one to understand
But she's got the papers on you
You're not even my man
I'm tired of having to spend all my holidays alone
Whenever I want you here with me
She wants you at home
There's gotta be some changes made
Right now in your life
You gotta make up your mind
It's either me or your wife, because...
I'm tired of hiding
Tired of those second-class places
Tired of hiding from old familiar faces
I got to know right now
if it's ever gonna end
Or have all of my worries just began
I'm tired of hiding, tired, so tired...
There's gotta be some changes made
Right now in your life
You gotta make up your mind
It's either me or your wife, because...
I'm tired of hiding
Tired of those second-class places
Tired of hiding from old familiar faces
I got to know right now
if it's ever gonna end
Or have all of my worries just began
I love me some Millie Jackson....
Life as it is. Feel it!
Maravilloso album. La version femenina del Whats going on de Marvin Gaye
