"I Can Love You Like A Woman (Or I Can Fight You Like A Man)" lyrics

I always thought that a man should be the boss in his home
But how can a king run his castle
When he's always gone? (Now listen)
I tried to do the things for you that a woman should do
But you taken me for granted, baby
You must think I'm some kind of fool
But here is some food for thoughts, and I hope you understand
I can love you like a woman but also fight you like a man
(And I don't think nothin' 'bout it)

You rush out and take your time coming in
And that's how it's always been
You've been treating me like I'm a piece of wood
Since I don't know when
But I'm a peaceful woman, I know violence is no good
But I can't demonstrate to you to be understood
So I want to tell you in plain English, just as plain as I can
I can love you like a woman but, oh, also fight you like a man
(Did you hear what I say?)

(You better watch your step, baby)

The very first thing you said to me, "I wear the pants"
Then you turned around and you started cheating
Soon as you got the chance (but listen)
Baby, your time is very close at hand
I can love you like a woman but, oh, also fight you like a man
(And don't think nothin' 'bout it)

I'm gonna get you back now, baby
Oh yes, I'm gonna fight you, baby
Oh, oh yeah, I'm gonna get you, baby
Oh, you can't get by always
Oh, oh yeah
