When a man loves a woman

Can't keep his mind on nothing else

He'll trade the world

For the good thing he's found

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

Trying to hold on to what he needs

He'd give up all his comfort

Sleep out in the rain

If she said that's the way it ought to be



Well, this man loves a woman

I gave you everything I had

Trying to hold on to your precious love

Baby, please don't treat me bad



When a man loves a woman

Down deep in his soul

She can bring him such misery

If she plays him for a fool

He's the last one to know

Loving eyes can't ever see



When a man loves a woman

He can do no wrong

He can never own some other girl

Yes when a man loves a woman

I know exactly how he feels

'Cause baby, baby, baby, you're my world



When a man loves a woman
