Weakness In A Man by Waylon Jennings Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1968

[Verse 1]
Honey, how you've changed
It makes me wonder have I ever really known you
How could you abuse and use
The kindness and tenderness that I have shown you
If I had known then, I have shown
The strength on which my love could make a stand

[Chorus]
But you've mistaken tenderness and kindness
For the weakness in your man

[Verse 2]
I can give you almost anything
If I know what you're looking for
I can give you everything
Any other man can give and more
He may promise you the world
But I can give you everything he can

[Chorus]
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
I may live my life alone
With walls of stone inside some lonely cell
But no man's going to take the love I own
And never live to tell the tale
So don't forsake the vows you made
And don't remove my little golden band

[Chorus][x2]
