Somebody asked me the other night, said, "Bobby Rush
Why you work two jobs and bring all your money
And just give it to your woman?"
Well, I do that because that's the way a man supposed to do
A man supposed to get out of work
And bring all his money and give it to his woman
Then if he wants to go out
He supposed to say, "May I go out tonight?
And may I have five dollars of my money to spend with the boys?"
Heh, at least that's the way I do
Somebody else asked me, said, "Well, if you do that
You must be a henpecked dude anyway"
Well, let me tell you something right now
I'm not henpecked
I just been pecked by the right hen
Listen, let me tell you this
Some folks say my woman don't love me
Says she don't mean me no good
They just jealous of what I got to do the same thing if they could
I ain't thinking 'bout you, I don't care what you say
Long as I'm getting what I'm getting
I'm gon' love her anyway
I done told you once, now I'm telling you again
I'm not henpecked
I just been pecked by the right hen
I'm not henpecked
Well, I just been pecked by the right hen
I tell you
I'm not henpecked
Well, I just been pecked by the right hen
(Hen pecked, yeah, yeah)
A fella walked up to me last night, said, "Bobby Rush
I been watching your woman for you while you were gone"
I bet, for me, listen
Why you watching my woman to see what she doing wrong?
Why you watching my woman
You oughta be watching your own
I ain't thinking 'bout you, I don't care what you say
Just as long as I'm getting what I'm getting
I'm gon' love her anyway
I done told you once
Now I'm telling you again
I'm not henpecked
I just been pecked by the right hen
I'm not henpecked
Well, I just been pecked by the right hen
I tell you
I'm not henpecked
Well, I just been pecked by the right hen
(Hen pecked, yeah, yeah)
I heard a fella said to me last night
Said, "Bobby Rush for 50 dollars
I'll tell you everything your woman been doing
While you was gone
And for 50 more dollars, I'll tell you who she did it with"
Let me tell you this
I don't want you to tell me nothing
I don't wanna know too much
Just like the old folks used to say
What you don't know sure can't hurt
I ain't thinking 'bout you
And I don't care what you say
Just as long as I'm getting what I want
I'm gon' love the woman anyway
I done told you once
Now I'm telling you again
I'm not henpecked
I just been pecked by the right hen
I'm not henpecked
Well, I just been pecked by the right hen
I tell you
I'm not henpecked
Well, Bobby Rush been pecked by the right hen
(Hen pecked, yeah, yeah)
I heard somebody tell me the other night said
"Bobby Rush," he said
"Your woman don't really love you, no way"
Uh, uh, let me tell you this
Well, if she don't love me, well, if she don't
I ain't gonna stand no quitting
Long as I'm getting what I want
What does love got to do with it?
I ain't thinking about you, I don't care what you say
As long as I'm getting what I want
I'm gon' love the woman anyway
I done told you once
I'm telling you again
I'm not henpecked
I just been pecked by the right hen
I'm not henpecked by love
Well, I just been pecked by the right hen
(Hen pecked, yeah, yeah)
Some call me a henpecked man, some call me a fool
'Cause I give my own woman all of my money
And love her like I do
Call me a henpecked man
Everyone, you can call me a henpecked fool
But it's my thing, and it's my money
I can do what I want to do
I ain't thinking about you
And I don't care what you say
Everybody trying to catch me to leave my woman alone
But I can't let her go
They don't know what you do to me
When she gets behind closed doors
I'm not a henpecked
Well, I just been pecked by the right hen
I'm not a henpecked at all, yo
Bobby Rush been pecked by the right hen
That's as long as she keep on giving me what she giving me
I'm gon' love until the end
I'm not a henpecked at all, yo
I just been pecked by the right hen
(Hen pecked, yeah, yeah)
Yes, I look like a pecked man
Oh, that's right, baby
Peck it right there
(Hen pecked, yeah, yeah)
You know what to do, oh
