I was born on a levy
A little bit south of
Montgomery
Mama worked in the big house
And daddy he worked for the
County
I never had no learnin'
Until
I turned 16
When
Joe
Henry come up the river, yonder
Law, made a woman out of me
Lord, he made a woman outta me
I used to tease
Joe
Henry
Guess it served me right
Wasn't long till he left me
Crying out in the night
Joe
Henry had his say
He wouldn't set me free
I fear to tell everybody
That the man made a woman outta me
Lord, he made a woman outta me
When
I think back to that day
So long ago
I get a little feelin' on my mind
Although it hurt me
There's one thing
I know
When he left, he left him a woman behind
When
I meet another young man
Wantin' to love and run
My mind goes back to
Joe
Henry
James
And a heck of a job he done
Ain't no other man let me down
You see
I been set free
Ever since way back yonder
When
Joe made a woman outta me
Lord, he made a woman outta me
Lord, he made a woman outta me
Joe made a woman outta me
Lord, he made a woman outta me
Joe made a woman outta me
Lord, he made a woman outta me
