When A Man Loves A Woman by The Contours Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When a man loves a woman
He can't keep his mind on nothin' else
Keeps tellin' the world what a good thing he's found
If she's bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend if he puts her down
[Verse 2]
When a man loves a woman
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 says that's the way
It ought to be, yeah
[Bridge]
Well, this man loves his woman
I give her every little thing I have
Tryin' to hold on to your precious love
Baby, please don't treat me bad
Come on girl, now
[Verse 3]
When a man loves a woman
Down deep in his soul
She can bring him so much misery
If she plays him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes can never see
[Interlude: Spoken]
When a man loves a woman
He can't keep his mind on nothin' else
He keeps tellin' the world what a good thing he's found
If she's bad, oh, if she's bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
He turns his back on his best friend if he puts her down
[Verse 4]
When a man loves a woman
Down deep in his soul
She can bring him so much misery
If she plays him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes can never see
[Outro]
Oh, he's the last one who knows
'Cause lovin' eyes can never see
When a man loves a woman
He can't keep his mind on nothin' else
Keeps tellin' the world what a good thing he's found
If she's bad, he can't see it
She can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend if he puts her down
[Verse 2]
When a man loves a woman
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 says that's the way
It ought to be, yeah
[Bridge]
Well, this man loves his woman
I give her every little thing I have
Tryin' to hold on to your precious love
Baby, please don't treat me bad
Come on girl, now
[Verse 3]
When a man loves a woman
Down deep in his soul
She can bring him so much misery
If she plays him for a fool
He's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes can never see
