He stays out every night
And leaves me all alone
He never tells me where he goes

I'm not the only lonely one
Just ask a woman who knows

We used to share our troubles
And the good times too
Now I'm left with all the woes

I'm not the only sorry one
Just ask a woman who knows

The days are long
Oh, but the nights are longer
I got the lonesomest blues

You know my only consolation
Is I ain't got nothing more to lose

So there you have the story
Of a love gone wrong
That used to blossom like a rose

Oh, I'm not the only broken heart
Just ask a woman who knows

Well, my only consolation
Is that I got nothing more to lose

So there you have the story
Of a love gone wrong
That used to blossom like a rose

But I'm not the only broken heart
Just ask a woman and I'm a woman
Just ask a woman who knows

Oh, yeah, ask a woman
Ask a woman
And I'm a woman who knows
