Intro
Verse 1
I Guess She's Mad, 'Cause The Door Just Slammed,
Right In The Middle Of My Face.
I Swear I Didn't Mean To Do Whatever I Did,
But I Know I've Done Lost My Place.
She Crossed Her Arms, Gave Me That Look,
Then Turned And Walked Away.
I'm Standin' Here Scratchin' My Head,
Wonderin' What The Hell To Say.
Chorus
Lord, Help Me Understand That Woman,
'Cause I Sure Don't Have A Clue.
When She Says, "I'm Fine," I Know Darn Well
That "Fine" Ain't Really True.
If I Ask What's Wrong, She Says, "Nothing,"
Then Gives Me That Look Again.
Lord, You Made The Heavens And The Earth,
So Explain This Woman To This Man.
Turnaround
Verse 2
Was It Something That I Said Last Night?
Something I Forgot Today?
Did I Leave My Boots There By The Door,
Or Get In Her Favorite Way?
Maybe I Forgot An Anniversary
From Nineteen Ninety-Nine.
She's Got A Memory Like An Elephant,
And I've Done Lost Half Of Mine.
Chorus
Lord, Help Me Understand That Woman,
'Cause I Sure Don't Have A Clue.
When She Says, "I'm Fine," I Know Darn Well
That "Fine" Ain't Really True.
If I Ask What's Wrong, She Says, "Nothing,"
Then Gives Me That Look Again.
Lord, You Made The Heavens And The Earth,
So Explain This Woman To This Man.

Bridge
I Can Change A Tire, Fix A Fence,
Keep An Old Ford Runnin' Strong.
I Can Read A Map And Hunt These Hills,
And Usually Tell Right From Wrong.
But One Little Sigh From That Woman Of Mine,
And Brother, I'm A Nervous Wreck—
I'd Rather Wrestle With A Grizzly Bear
Than Hear...
N.c.
"We Need To Talk" Next.
Verse 3
So I Bought Some Flowers And Her Favorite Wine,
And I'm Waitin' By The Door.
Don't Know What I'm Apologizin' For,
But I've Been Here Before.
I'll Say, "Baby, I Was Wrong Again,"
She'll Ask, "Wrong About What?"
That's When I'll Look Toward Heaven And Say,
"Lord... You Gotta Help Me Out."
Chorus
Lord, Help Me Understand That Woman,
I've Been Tryin' All These Years.
One Minute She's Laughin' Beside Me,
Next Minute I'm Shiftin' Gears.
But I'd Take Every Slammed Door,
Every "Nothing," Every Fight,
'Cause That Woman I Don't Understand
Is The Love Of My Whole Life.
Outro
Yeah, Lord, I May Never Understand Her,
And Maybe That's Your Grand Design.
But There's One Thing I Understand For Sure—
I Sure Love That Woman Of Mine.
