the song was performed back in the 90's when a bunch of the electric musician's momentarily jumped on the acoustic bandwagon for a brief hayride called the "unplugged format" following the lead of eric clapton.... anyway, clapton did a traditional blues called "motherless child" using a 12-string in an open G tuning (in the key of E) and I've been covering this tune for a couple of years now but there is one verse where the tag line has eluded me (forcing me to just sing some lyric that makes some sort of contextual sense....). the verse in question is number 4:

if you see two women,
    always runnin' hand-in-hand;
if you see two pretty women,
    always running hand-in-hand;
you can bet your bottom dollar
    one.......

has anyone got the correct tag for this phrase? I don't know how many times I have listened to this recording trying to decipher the line. (it is harder than attempting to decode Mick Jagger back in the early 1960s.....I actually got pretty good at figuring old Mick out.) the phrase ends with a rhymed word paired against "hand" (which I'm pretty sure is "man"). thanks in advance for any help that might be forthcoming,
