I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man

Verse 1

Only last June when her old man ran away

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

10:35 on a lonely Friday night

She was standing by the fire and ooh she was looking alright

be Section

I asked her if she wanted to dance

And she said that

All she wanted was a good man

And wanted to know

If I thought I was qualified

Chorus

And I said baby don't waste your time

I know what's on your mind

I may be qualified for a one night stand

But I could never take the place of your man

Verse 2

It hurt me so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes

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

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

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

be -Section

She asked me if we could be friends

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

You know and I know

That we wouldn't be satisfied

Chorus

And I said baby don't waste your time

I know what's on your mind baby

Wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand

And I could never take the place of your man

(Chorus out)
