"When A Man Loves A Woman" lyrics
(originally by Percy Sledge)
When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'd trade the world
For the good thing he's found
If she is 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 his woman
Spend his last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all of his comforts
Sleep out in the rain
If she says that's the way it ought to be
Well, this man loves you, woman
I give you everything I can
Just trying to hold on to your high-class love
Baby, please, don't treat me bad
For when a man loves his woman
Deep down in his soul
She can bring him such misery
And if she plays him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Loving eyes never can see
When a man loves his woman
He can do her no wrong
He can never hold some other girl
Say, yeah, when a man loves his woman
I know exactly how he feels
Cause baby, baby, you're my girl
Can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'd trade the world
For the good thing he's found
If she is 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 his woman
Spend his last dime
Trying to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all of his comforts
Sleep out in the rain
If she says that's the way it ought to be
Well, this man loves you, woman
I give you everything I can
Just trying to hold on to your high-class love
Baby, please, don't treat me bad
For when a man loves his woman
Deep down in his soul
She can bring him such misery
And if she plays him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Loving eyes never can see
When a man loves his woman
He can do her no wrong
He can never hold some other girl
Say, yeah, when a man loves his woman
I know exactly how he feels
Cause baby, baby, you're my girl
