Natalie Cole

By Victor Abrams

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

(Musical Interlude)

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

The daughter of jazz legend Nat King Cole, Natalie Marie Cole (February 6, 1950-December 31, 2015) was an R&B icon who was primarily active from 1956 until her death in 2015 due to congestive heart failure at age 65. She first rose to success in the mid-‘70s with Inseparable and Natalie and later spawning Grammy-recognized albums like Unforgettable…With Love, which took home Album of the Year.

Cole has nine Grammy Awards out of twenty-one nominations – only a small testament to her legend.
