Here's more interesting things in songs and lyrics tied to Bonnie Raitt or about the 1970s in general.

If you don’t love her you’d better let her go
You’ll never fool her you’re bound to let it show
Love’s so hard to take when you have to fake
Everything in return
You just preserve her
When you serve her a little tenderness.

If she’s a woman she’ll try to make it last
If you’re a man now you’d better end it fast
There’s no reason here, no treason here
Jus the way a womans mind
Well she has no name. she has no shame
She just loves you

It’s not easy to undo what’s done
Or to speak too freely to just anyone
And if this takes more than you bargained for
Boy it’s time you learned
Not to talk so loud, not to walk so proud
When you’re comin’ on.

Some of the lyrics to Any Day Woman have clear meanings and some contain metaphorical references.

You can understand the lyrics to Any Day Woman if you take apart the structure of the words. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Any Day Woman" means the words set to the music of Any Day Woman, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Bonnie Raitt. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics.

None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Bonnie Raitt who came here looking just for the lyrics to Any Day Woman, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
