When a man loves a woman Can't keep his mind on nothing else He'll trade the world For the good thing he's found If she is 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 Trying to hold on to what he needs He'd give up all his comfort Sleep out in the rain If she said that's the way it ought to be Well, this man loves a woman I gave you everything I had Trying to hold on to your high-class love Baby, ooh, 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 plays him for a fool, yeah He's the last one to know Loving eyes can't ever see When a man loves woman He can do her no wrong He can never want some other girl Yes, when a man loves a woman I know exactly how he feels Baby, baby, baby, you're my world When a man loves a woman I know exactly how he feels
