| Baby did I ever make you a promise
|
| And I’ve got so busy that is slipped my mind
|
| These things happen, you know
|
| Then I’m asking you to forgive me
|
| I’m so sorry and I apologize
|
| Oh yeah
|
| 'Cause I know to a woman
|
| Her man’s promises keep her goin'
|
| Yes they do
|
| I’ve got to do a little bit better than I’ve been doing
|
| Baby do you ever need me to hold you
|
| And I was somewhere else at the time
|
| This fool, am I
|
| Then I’m asking you to forgive me
|
| I’m so sorry and I apologize
|
| Oh yeah
|
| 'Cause I know to a woman
|
| Her man’s love keeps her goin'
|
| Yes it does
|
| I’ve got to do a little bit better than I’ve been doin'
|
| A man gets so busy tryin' to meet
|
| His little man’s needs
|
| That he forgets some other promises he’s made
|
| Oh yeah
|
| But when a man’s got himself a woman
|
| That’s so sweet and understandin'
|
| You know that man has got it made
|
| In the shade
|
| Baby, whatever time you were crying
|
| And I wasn’t there to dry your eyes
|
| Wooh, I’m asking you to forgive me
|
| I’m so sorry and I apologize
|
| Oh yes I am
|
| 'Cause I know to a woman
|
| Her man’s attentions keep her going
|
| I’ve got to do a little bit better than I’ve been doing |
