I was the best thing to happen in your whole miserable life

And I wish that I never took you to heart but I did

Really paid the price

Something in your eyes told me to keep on running

But I guess I learned the hard way you ain't worth believing in

But you can't keep a good woman down

No, no, no you can't keep a good woman down

I was no more than the play thing of a fragile ego gone wild

Now I know you saw a challenge in me, need to show

You're more than a frightened little child

To think that I had seen the easy way that you betrayed her

But then could not see that with me you were only starting over

But you can't keep a good woman down

No, no, no you can't keep a good woman down

And Oh, so cruel that you left me crying

But I picked myself back off the ground

Whoa oh

Cause you can't keep a good woman down

No, no, no you can't keep a good woman down

No you can't keep a good woman down

No, no, no you can't keep a good woman down
