You're Taking up Another Man's Place

Lyrics

You don't want me
 And you don't want nobody else to want me
 What kind of man
 What kind of man are you?
 ♪
 You don't need me
 And you don't want nobody else to need me
 What kind of man
 Are you trying to send me to?
 Now if you're not gonna take care of business
 Then you ought to stop taking up space
 'Cause you're just taking up, that's all you're doing
 You just taking up another man's place
 Aw baby, you don't even
 You don't even want me to go to the store alone
 ♪
 What kind of man
 What manner of man are you?
 You run over me
 You run right over me trying to answer the telephone
 Tell me what kind of thing, what kind of thing
 What kind of thing you think you gonna put me through?
 
 You keep me wanting
 You keep me wanting the one thing you never gave
 Well, right here right now
 You can stop taking up another man's space
 Baby, I been faithful
 And you know I been true
 But if you're not gonna love me, baby
 Tell me what do you expect me to do?
 Oh, if you're not gonna love me, baby
 And you know I need, I need, I need somebody to love me
 Then you just ought to stop taking up another man's space
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, baby
 If you're gonna leave me
 If you know you're really gonna leave me, baby
 Don't you know that you ought to
 You just ought to stop taking up another man's place
 You know I need somebody right now
