A woman singing. She's singing about being in love with a one eyed man. I think she caught him cheating and was talking about what she was gonna do to him the next time she saw him. A friend of mine asked me if I heard it but I haven't. Can anyone help me out?

Btw, I've exhausted every website I could think of to find this song.

Sounds like a southern soul song, like Louisiana or Mississippi swamp boogie type music. In fact, it seems to be stuck way back in the back of my head that I have this song, and that it may be done by either Katie Webster or Sweet Miss Coffy. I just don't have the time right now to research it, but if the limited information I have given leads someone else to identify it for you, then I am happy I was able to help.

If you are still stuck a few days from now, e-mail me privately and I will try to check through my collection for you.

If you know part of the lyrics, type the partial lyrics in quotation marks in your favorite internet search engine. Using quotation marks helps narrow things down in your search results. Use other "key" words outside the quotations to narrow it down even further. I guarantee you will identify the tune your friend recommended quickly.

Thank you so much MIKEW.....I haven' talked to my friend today but listening to that song...sounds about right to me. He said it had a bluesy/jazz sound to it. I'll let you know.

UPDATE......My friend did some research and the version he was talking about was by Irene Reid. I like Gloria's version better!!
