When a man loves a woman Can't keep his mind on nothin' else He'd trade the world For the good thing he's found If she is bad, he can't see it She can do no wrong And turn his back on his best friend If he puts her down When a man loves a woman Spend his very last dime And trying to hold on to what he needs He'd give up all his comforts And sleep out in the rain If she said that's the way, it ought to be When a man loves a woman I give you everything I've got Trying to hold on to your precious love And baby baby please don't treat me bad When a man loves a woman Deep down in his soul She can bring him such misery If she is playing him for a fool He's the last one to know Loving eyes can never see Yes when a man loves a woman I know exactly how he feels 'Cause baby, baby When a man loves a woman When a man loves a woman When a man loves a woman When a man, when a man When a man loves a woman
