Betty Wright Clean up Woman

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.
Tough and slick was my ruin cause,
I found out all I was doing was making it easy,
for the Clean up woman to get my man's love ah yeah
Just making it easy for the clean up woman
to get my baby's love ah hum, um hum.
I took this man's love and put it a shelf
and like a fool I thought I had him all to myself.
When ya needed love I was out having fun,
but I found out that all I had done
