"When he held me in his arms,
when he held me in his arms and said,
"Baby, baby, baby, you are the only one for me."

When a man loves a woman,
can`t keep his mind on nothing else.
He`ll trade the world
for the good thing he found.
Yeah, if she`s 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
tryin` to hold on to what he needs.
He`ll give up all his comforts,
go out and sleep out in the rain,
if she says, "Baby, that is how it`s gonna be."

When a man loves a woman,
gives her everything that he has,
tryin` to hold on to her precious love,
cryin, "Baby, baby please don`t treat me bad."

When a man loves a woman
down deep in his soul,
she can bring him such misery.
Yeah, she`s bad, but, oooh,
he`s the last one to know.
Lovin` eyes don`t ever see.

So, this man says he loves me, he loves me.
He gives me everything, everything,
everything that he has,
tryin` to hold on to my precious love,
cryin`, "Baby, baby, baby, don`t you, don`t you
treat me, treat me bad."
Ohhhh . . . yeah.

When a man loves a woman
he can do her no wrong.
He could never hold another girl.
Oh, you tell me you love me, baby,
and gonna hold me tight.
Baby, baby, this is a man`s world.
No, no.
Oh, baby, a change is gonna come down
in this man`s world.
