Lyrics
Well, I've been out on
Expressing the duration spent outside
The street since yesterday
Being on the streets continuously since the previous day
Been looking for
In search of
The woman that got away
The woman who left or escaped
A long-legged thing
Describing a tall woman
With a red dress on
Wearing a striking red dress
The kind of woman
Referring to a captivating, irresistible type of woman
You can't leave alone
A woman one finds impossible to part with
Listen, if you see her,
Requesting to send her in his direction if found
Send her my way
Searching for the woman who left
Looking for the woman
Continuing the quest for the departed woman
That got away
Recalling the last sighting of her
The last time I seen her
She appeared attractive during the last encounter
She was looking good
Feeling a mutual understanding with her
I had a feeling
She escaped or slipped away during the night
That she understood
Expressing the need to find and treat her well
She slipped through my fingers
Desire to ensure her presence and fidelity
In the middle of the night
Prioritizing caring for her appropriately
I've gotta find my woman
Asking to redirect her towards him
And treat her right
Seeking the woman who left the last time
Listen, if you see her,
Hoping for another chance with her
Send her my way
Desiring to keep her close this time
Looking for the woman
A determination to retain her and not let her go
That got away
Envisioning a protective measure once reunited
If I ever get my hands
Expressing the intent to secure her presence
On that woman again
To confine her within his space
I'm gonna lock my door
Ensuring she stays without traveling
And keep her in
Deciding to keep her from following
She won't do no travelling,
To safeguard the relationship and leave together
Won't follow me 'round
To commit to her and move away together
I'm gonna keep my woman
Choosing to prioritize the relationship and leave the current place
And leave town
To relocate together and start afresh
