The excerpt presents the lyrical narrative of UB40’s song “One Woman Man.” The speaker reflects on personal habits and past loneliness, then describes a deep, monogamous love that transforms his nights and days. He uses nighttime imagery—cigarettes, the moon, drifting into the night—to contrast with the sunrise, when he longs to see the woman he loves lying beside him. The repeated refrain emphasizes his commitment to a single woman, marking a shift from earlier, less stable experiences to a stable, devoted relationship.

Chapters

cigaretes, nipotinas, stuff. I'd make my home in the arms of Paul Wall when I was alone. When the moon was light, I would drift away into the night until another day. When the sun comes up, I just run and I see the woman that I love lying next to me. Uh, oh, one woman, man, I gotta say. You know that it hasn't always been this way, but that's all changed. I can see it now as I wave goodbye to my Czech Republic. When the moon was like our dream. Away into the night until another day. When the sun comes up, I just want to see the woman that I love lying next to me. Into the night until another day. When the sun comes up, I just wanna see the woman that I love lying next to me.
