Il testo della Understanding

* understanding is the best thing in the world ,
Between a boy and a girl

Boy and girl and even a woman or a man , its always
Better when you realy understand

1) you know understanding is a mighty powerful thing ,
Thats why it makes me so sad
When i see my friends wandering aroung thru the world
, never knowing the meaning of the word
Understanding , so in the next few minutes, im gonna
Try to explain just exactly what it means
Now wait a minute, listen , for instance , you take me
And my old lady , we gotta good thing goin
Because i know if i dont work and pay the rent and the
Bills and buy her fine pretty clothes to wear well ,
There are fifteen other guys just waitin round the
Corner , and i dont care how much that woman loves me
, she? gonna go out and find herself one of them who
Will and thats why i believe that

* repeat

2) now listen i dont want you to think that this is a
One sided affair , no no
Because my old lady also understands that a man must
Have respect
What i mean is , if she must play around dont let me
Catch her , because what i dont see cant hurt me , you
Understand? but on the other hand , if i should ever
Catch her im not gonna talk about-a
And call her a bunch of bad names like you all might
No no mh
What im gonna do , im gonna go down-town to the
Hardware store and buy myself a double blade axe ,
Come back , square off, and believe her soul? gonna
Belong to the good lord
Because her head? gonna belong to me , and i
Guarantie she?l know what i mean when ill say

* repeat several times ............. ( fade )
