“What a Woman!” was the first version of the Howlin' Wolf song “Commit a Crime” to be released on record. The first recorded version was recorded in 1966 but not released until 1979.
Of course, the earlier recording was accompanied by Wolf’s blues band, while the London sessions were backed mostly...
[Verse 1]
I'm gonna leave you, woman, before I commit a crime
I’m gonna leave you, woman, before I commit a crime
You tried so hard to kill me, woman, it just was not my time
[Verse 2]
You put poison in my coffee instead of milk or cream
You put poison in my coffee instead of milk or cream
You 'bout the evilest woman that I ever seen
[Verse 3]
You mixed my drink with a can of Red Devil lye
You mixed my drink with a can of Red Devil lye
Then you sat back and watch me, hoping that I would die
[Verse 4]
I'm gonna leave you, woman, before I commit a crime
I’m gonna leave you, woman, before I commit a crime
You tried so hard to kill me, woman, it just was not my time
What A Woman! was written by St. Louis Jimmy Oden.
What A Woman! was produced by Norman Dayron.
