When he held me in his arms
When he held me in his arms and said
"Baby baby baby you are the only one for me."
When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing else.
He'll trade the world
For the good thing he found.
Yeah if she's bad he can't see it.
She can do no wrong.
Turn his back on his best friend
If he put her down.
When a man loves a woman
Spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs.
Give up all his comforts
Go out and sleep out in the rain
If she says "Baby that is how it's gonna be."
When a man loves a woman
Give up everything that he has
Tryin' to hold on to her precious love
Cryin "Baby baby please don't treat me bad."
When a man loves a woman
Down deep in his soul
She can bring him such misery.
If she's playin' him for a fool
He's the last one to know.
Lovin' eyes don't ever see.
So this man says he loves me he loves me.
He gives me everything everything
Everything that he has
Tryin' to hold on to my precious love
Cryin' "Baby baby baby don't you don't you
Treat me treat me bad."
Ohhhh oh I need him.
Yeah when a man loves a woman
He can do her no wrong.
He could never hold another girl.
Why you tell me you love me baby
And run out ah-ah-ah-on the sly?
Baby baby this is a man's world.
No no.
Oh baby change has got to come
In this man's world.
