When a Man Loves a Woman
(written by C. Lewis and A.
Wright
performed by Percy Sledge
Atlantic Recording Corp.)
When a man loves a woman,
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else,
He'd change 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
a woman,
He'll spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs.
He'd give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain,
If she said that's
the way
It ought to be.
Well, this man loves you, woman.
I gave you
everything I have,
Tryin' to hold on to your hot blood long.
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 is playin' him for a fool,
He's the last one to
know.
Lovin' eyes can never see.
When a man loves a woman
he can do
her no wrong,
he can never hug
some other girl.
Yes,When a man loves
a woman
I know exactly how he feels,
'Cause baby, baby, you're .
When
a man loves a woman....
