I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man |
It was only last June when her old man ran away |
She couldn’t stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay |
It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night |
She was standin' by the bar |
Hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah |
I asked if she wanted to dance |
And she said all she wanted was a good man |
And wanted to know if I thought I was qualified, yeah |
And I said, baby don’t waste your time |
I know what’s on your mind |
I may be qualified for a one night stand |
But I could never take the place of your man |
It hurt me so bad when she told me |
With tears in her eyes |
He was all she ever had and now she wanted to die |
He left her with a baby and another one on the way |
She couldn’t stop cryin' cause she knew he was gone to stay |
She asked me if we could be friends |
And I said, oh, honey baby that’s a dead end |
You know and I know that we wouldn’t be satisfied |
And I said, baby don’t waste your time |
I know what’s on your mind |
I may be qualified for a one night stand |
But I could never take the place of your man |
