Clean Up Woman Lyrics By Betty Wright

    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

    pre
    jumpin’ slick was my ruin
    ’cause i found out all i was doin’

    was making it easy for the clean up woman
    to get my man’s love oh yeah
    just making it easy for the clean up woman
    to get my baby’s love uhhuh mhm

    i took this man’s love and put it on a shelf
    and like a fool i thought i had him all to myself

    pre
    when you needed love i was out having fun
    but i found out that all i had done

    was made it easy for the clean up woman
    to get my man’s love uhhuh
    yeah that’s what i did i made it easy for the clean up woman
    to steal my baby’s love oh yeah

    the clean up woman will wipe his blues away
    she’ll give him plenty lovin’ 4 hours a day
    the clean up woman she’ll sweep him off his feet
    she’s the one who’ll take him in when you dump him in the street
    so take a tip you better get hip
    to the clean up woman ’cause she’s tough
    i mean she really cleans up
