Wikipedia article
"'If You Want to Be My Woman'" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist Merle Haggard backed by The Strangers. It was released in December 1989 as the third single from his album '5:01 Blues'. The song peaked at number 23 on the 'Billboard' Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart and reached number 15 on the 'RPM' Country Tracks chart in Canada.
The song was Haggard's last top-40 country hit; like most classic country artists, Haggard's chart career was severely damaged by changes in the country industry that hit in the early 1990s. It was co-produced by Mark Yeary, keyboardist of The Strangers.
