She said that she'd take it off right here
Take it off right now
Give him back his ring and stay with me
She must think that's what I want to hear
Good as it may sound
I know myself and that can't be
And I didn't feel bad about it till right then
Had to remind her that we was just pretend
(Chorus)
I said baby I want you
But he needs you
Stay with the real thing
I never love you like him
See I only want you
Baby he needs you
Stay with the real thing x2
(Stay with your man)
Here comes the test, Baby please don't cry
I thought you knew what this was
Baby never could I take the place of your husband
We'll always be friends
And I didn't feel bad about it till right then
Had to remind her that we were just pretend

(Chorus)
I said baby I want you
But he needs you
Stay with the real thing
I never love you like him
See I only want you
But Baby he needs you
Stay with the real thing x2
Stay with your man
(Stay with your man)
He's got love for you forever
Why can't you see, here with me won't be better
(Chorus)
Cuz I only want you
But he needs you
Stay with the real thing
I never love you like him
I only want you
But he needs you
Stay with the real thing X2
Stay with your man
Oh oh oh oh oh x6
STAY WITH YOUR MAN
