This song is about Solomon, the king of Israel. Wisdom, mentioned in the first line, was indeed his defining trait.
He is the subject of many different stories, not only in the bible but also One Thousand and One Nights.
He is said to have had 700 wives.
AND 300 concubines.
Solomon Lyrics
[Intro]
Solomon (Solomon)
[Chorus]
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
[Verse 1]
I am wiser than Solomon
So, girl, don't play no tricks
Just be calm and be still
Don't run me down for my bread
You wasn't around when I was slaving myself
[Bridge]
Girl leave Murvin alone
Because I'm a big man in this town
Let me sing
[Chorus]
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
[Verse 2]
I am wiser than Solomon
So, girl, don't play no tricks
Just be calm and be still
Don't run me down for my bread
You wasn't around when I was slaving myself
[Bridge]
Girl leave Murvin alone
Because I'm a big man in this town
Let me sing
[Chorus]
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
Solomon was the wisest man
But he didn't know the secrets of a woman
[Verse 3]
I am wiser than Solomon
So, girl, don't play no tricks
Just be calm and be still
Don't run me down for my bread
You wasn't around when I was slaving myself
[Bridge]
Girl leave Murvin alone
Because I'm a big man in this town
Let me sing
