When a man loves a woman
Can’t keep his mind on nothin’ else
He’d trade your world for the good thing he’s found
If she is bad, he can’t see it, she can do no wrong
He'll turn his back on his best friend if she puts him down

When a man loves a woman he spend his very last dime
Trying to hold on to everything he needs
He’ll give all of his comforts just to sleep out in the rain
If she'll say that’s the way it's gotta be

Oh, this man loves this woman
I give everything I have
Trying to hold on to her sweet fine precious love
Baby please don’t make me feel so bad

When a man loves a woman
Deep down inside his soul she can bring him such misery
If she plays him for a fool, he’s the last one to know
Lovin' eyes always too blind to see

When a man loves a woman he can do her no wrong
He can only love one woman at a time
When a man loves a woman he got to treat that woman right
If he don't he'll lose that woman
That woman surely someday'll be mine

When a man loves a woman he got to do the best he can
Love her and keep her and treat her in every way
When a man loves a woman he should make that sacrifice
Promise he got to give to her his life
