You Can Tell

[Chorus]
You can always tell
When a woman is in love
Just look in her eyes
And it's all there to see
And there's that certain smile, hm
That she'll smile
That says "Honey, I love-love you"
And you can tell it, oh yes you can
Before a little boy can say his A-B-C's
(A-B-C-D, E-F-G) Mmm-hmm-mmm

[Verse 1]
No, a man doesn't have to ask his woman if she loves him
If she loves that man, he'll know it
And if she doesn't love him
Well, he'll know that, too
You see, women are very sentimental
And sometimes, they lеt their hearts overrulе their heads
A woman and her man can be broke, hungry, raggedy
And no place to stay, heh
But if she loves that man
She'll say "Baby, that's alright, we gon' make"
And ain't got a dime to their name
But women are just like that, ha-ha-ha-ha!
Woo

[Chorus]
And that's how you can tell
When a woman is in love
Just look in her eyes
And it's all there to see
There's that certain smile
That you'll she her smile
That simply says "We're broke, but I love you"
And you can tell it, oh yes you can
Before a little girl can say her A-B-C's
(H-I-J-K, L-M-N) Mmm-hmm-mmm

[Verse 2]
But with a man, ha
It's a different thing
I don't care how much a man loves his woman
If they're broke, hungry, raggedy
And no place to stay, hm
Love is just like any other four letter word to him
She can say "Honey, do you love me?"
And he'll say "Yeah baby, but we're broke
And two broke people ain't got no business bein' together
Under no circumstances whatsover"
Heh, that's a man for you
But woo

[Chorus]
You can tell, heh
When a woman is in love
Just look in her eyes
That's where you'll see it, huh
And it's all there to see
There's that certain smile
That she'll smile
That says "Baby, I love-love-love you"
And you can tell it everytime, hUh
Before a little children can say their A-B-C's
(O-P-Q-R, S-T-U) V-W-X-Y-Z
