I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man lyrics

It was only last June when her old man ran away

She couldn't stop crying 'cause she knew he was gone 2 stay

It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night

She was standin' by the bar

Hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah

I asked her if she wanted 2 dance

And she said all she wanted was a good man

And wanted 2 know if I thought I was qualified, yeah

And I said, baby don't waste your time

I know what's on your mind

I may be qualified 4 a one night stand

But I could never take the place of your man

It hurt me so bad when she told me

with tears in her eyes (tears in her eyes)

He was all she ever had and now she wanted 2 die

He left her with a baby and another one on the way

She couldn't stop cryin'

Cause she knew he was gone 2 stay

She asked me if we could be friends

And I said, oh, honey baby that's a dead end

U know and I know that we wouldn't be satisfied

And I said, baby don't waste your time

I know what's on your mind

U wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand

And I could never take the place of your man

Yeah, yeah, the place of your man
