Friend Lover Woman Wife Lyrics - Singles - Claude King

Well, she's a friend, she's a lover 

She's a woman, she's a wife 

She's the answer to the prayer that every lonely man dreams of 

She's a temptress, she's a lady 

She's the mother of my baby 

And I thank God that I'm the lucky man she loves 

Sometimes I lie awake and watch her sleeping 

And I just wanna bust and love drops fill my eyes 

I wonder what she'd think if she woke up and caught me weeping 

'Cause daddy's heroes ain't supposed to cry 

You know the morning always seems to catch us laughing 

We got the baby in the bed between us safe and warm 

And I thank the Lord above for all the good times I'm having 

Wrapped up in my woman's loving arms 

'Cause she's a friend, she's a lover 

She's a woman, she's a wife 

She's the answer to the prayer that every lonely man dreams of 

She's a temptress, she's a lady 

She's the mother of my baby 

And I thank God that I'm the lucky man she loves 

When the load gets heavy on my shoulders 

I can't keep the pace and I need a place to hide 

I run home to my own little world and take her in my arms and hold her 

And I soon forget that there's another world outside 

Well, she's a friend, she's a lover 

She's a woman, she's a wife 

She's the answer to the prayer that every lonely man dreams of 

She's a temptress, she's a lady 

She's the mother of my baby 

And I thank God that I'm the lucky man she loves
