[English]

Been dazed and confused

For so long, it's not true

Wanted a woman, never bargained for you

Lots of people talk and few of them know

Soul of a woman was created below, yeah

You hurt and abuse,

Tellin' all of your lies

Run 'round, sweet baby, lord, how they hypnotize

Sweet little baby, I don't know where you been

Gonna love you, baby, here I come again

Every day I work so hard, bringin' home my hard-earned pay

Try to love you, baby, but you push me away

Don't know where you're goin',

Only know just where you've been

Sweet little baby, I want you again

Ah, ah, ah, ah

(Did you ever look up my woman)

Ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah

Ahh, ah, ah, ah, ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahhh, ahh

Oh, yeah, alright, alright

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah, ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Oh, I don't like when you're mystifyin' me

Oh, don't leave me so confused, now

Whoa, baby

Been dazed and confused for so long, it's not true

Wanted a woman, never bargained for you

Take it easy, baby,

Let them say what they will

Tongue wag so much when I send you the bill,

Oh, yeah, alright
