(Harmonica Intro)

Speak now, woman

Or forever hold your peace

Speak now, woman

But for you ever hold your peace

An' if I don’t stop you now

More trouble will increase

You’ve cut off your nose

Just to spite your face

You cut off your nose

Just to spite your face

You tryin' to bring me down in disgrace

I don’t believe

Me an' you gon' make the grade

I don’t believe

Me an' you will make the grade

'Cause you got another man

Then you wanna use me for your slave

Speak now, woman

Or forever hold your peace

Oh speak now, woman

Or woman forever hold your peace

An' if I don’t stop you now, woman

More troubles will increase.
