CLEAN UP WOMAN
Album : 70 Radio Hits - Vol. 6
(Reid / Clark)
Betty Wright


A clean up woman
Is a woman who
Gets all the love we girls leave behind.
The reason I know
So much about her
Is because she picked up a man of mine.

Chumpin' Slick
Was my ruin
'Cause I found out all I was doin'
Was makin' it easy
For the clean up woman
To get my man's love, oh, yeah.

Just makin' it easy
For the clean up woman
To get my baby's love, uh-huh.

Mmm-hmm.

I took this man's love and put it on a shelf
And like a fool, I thought I had him all to myself.
When he needed love, I was out havin' fun
But I found out all I had done
Was made it easy
For the clean up woman
To get my man's love, uh-huh.
Yeah, that's what I did.
I made it easy
For the clean up woman
To steal my baby's love, oh, yeah.

The clean up woman
Will wipe his blues away.
She'll give him penny lovin'
24 hours a day.
The clean up woman,
She'll sweep him off his feet.
She's the one
To take him in when you dump him in the street.
So take a tip,
You better get hip
To the clean up woman,
'Cause she's tough.
I mean she really cleans up.
