Stand By Your Man |
I need two to stand by me when the chips are down and |
Stick around while I defend my crown and |
No sell-out, the chip is too rough and |
I’ll blow your skin to sofa, leave your mind to be tough |
And I might seem rough but life is much rougher |
To see success sometimes you gotta suffer |
I need a woman that’s stronger than material needs |
And isn’t motivated by green |
Dry my tear-drops and feelin’my pain and |
Watchin’my back while I strive to maintain and |
Makin’love like a medicine doctor |
I knew that she was bad from the day that I clocked her |
(Chorus: Dawn Greene) |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby |
(LL Cool J) |
My enemies come and my break-bread's tough but |
You recognize game from your eyes and walkin' |
Baby ain’t no way I’ll let the vultures attack you |
So I’ll teach you the game and tell you how to react to The conversation, sexy vibration |
Visual stimulation, slick persuasion |
Times are hard, I need a woman that rolls by God |
And the only man she loves is Todd |
But will you be around when the raindrops fallin' |
Or could it be you never loved me at all and |
I need a trooper, a soldier, a agent |
I need someone who can roll with my arrangement |
The reap reducer factor and |
The Queen of the Universe, not an actor and |
Standin’by her man till the end |
Not only as a lover but a friend |
(Chorus: Dawn Greene) |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby (yeah) |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby |
(LL Cool J) |
Man, do things get better? |
We can look back at the whole aerators |
Remember the times when they said I couldn’t do it But I was rougher than rough and baby you knew it and |
You held back when your loved jobs called in You had faith when they said they’re not callin' |
You understood that what we had was good |
you stood by your man like a real queen should |
That’s why now I got you livin’your dream as A beautiful wisdom, a part of my team and |
As long as I live on this earth |
Anything you want is what your loyalty’s worth |
(Chorus: Dawn Greene) |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby |
(I wanna send this one out to all the ladies in the house) |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your man |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby, (word) |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your man (peace) |
You got to stand by your baby |
You got to stand by your man |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your man |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby |
You got to stand by your man |
You got to stand by your baby |
Stand by your, man, stand by your man |
You got to stand by your man |
