about

I had been listening to the old Jim Kweskin Jug Band doing their great cover of I'm a Woman and I ended up writing this updated soulful tune that basically puts across the same message. Emy had just joined the band and boy she delivers the vocals with some kind of attitude. Blows the socks off.

lyrics

A Woman Like Me
(by John Beccia)

You know a good man like you, gonna need a woman like me
You know a good man like you, gonna need some good company -y-y
I’ll help to rise so strong in the light...Then back into bed in the dead of night
You know a good man like you, gonna need a woman like me
Gonna need a woman like me

You know a good man like you, gonna need a woman like me
‘Cause anything that you want, I can give you so easily-y-y
If you need food, then I will take heed ...I’ll satisfy you with the things you need
You know a good man like you, gonna need a woman like me....Gonna need a woman like me

I’ll bring you back up, when you are down.... If you are lost, I’ll make sure you are found
The future looks good, forget what is past....I’ll give you a sweet love, and you’ll want it to last
I’ll give you sweet love that will last

You know a good man like you, gonna need a woman like me
You know that love can be sweet, then sting you like a queen bee
The honey that’s love is inside the hive...Sharing my sugar keepsyou alive
You know a good man like you, gonna need a woman like me.....Gonna need a woman like me

It don’t matter where, the kitchen or hall ..... In spring or in summer or winter or fall
I’ll take all you give and I’ll give you my all.....And If you cry out I will answer the call
You cry and I answer the call

You know a good man like you, gonna need a woman like me
You know a good man like you, gonna need some good company-y-y
I’ll make your head spin, out of control
And pull you right out of the deepest hole
You know a good man like you, gonna need a woman like me
Gonna need a woman like me
Gonna need a woman like me
Gonna need a woman.
Gonna need a good good woman
A good woman to squeeze you
A good woman to please you
Gonna need a good.....good.......woman..... like me......................
