When a man loves a woman Can't keep his mind on nothin' else He'd trade the world For a good thing he's found If she is bad, he can't see it She can do no wrong He turns his back on his best friend If he puts her down Yes, When a man loves a woman Spend his very last dime Trying to hold on to what he needs He'd give up all of his comforts And sleep out in the rain If she said that's the way It's gotta be Well this man loves the woman (Yes I do) I give everything I have Trying to hold on to her kind of love Why if can she treat me bad? When a man loves a woman I've talked about it down deep in the soul She can bring him such misery If she's playing him for a fool He's the very last one to know Loving eyes can never see Yes when a man loves a woman Oh, he spends his very last dime Trying to hold on to what he needs He'd give up all of his comforts Oh, that fool sleeps out in the rain If she said that's the way It's gotta be I need it down deep in the soul
