Take It Like a Man

Boy meets girl it's a delicate thing
 So much time spent wondering
 If what you see is what you get
 I keep looking for a friend and a lover
 When I find one he ain't the other
 Sometimes, I just want to quit
 One wants a maid one needs his mother
 They either want space or they want to smother me
 And my poor heart needs somebody who
 Can take it like a man, steady and strong
 Not a lot of fuss and carrying on
 True to a promise I can ride in a storm
 Take it like a man who knows about love
 And every little thing that a girl dreams of
 Someone wise enough to understand
 If you want this woman's heart
 Take it like a man
 I met somebody the other night
 Started thinking he was Mr. Right
 Wrong, I might have never known
 If a friend hadn't brought it to my attention
 He's got a wife he forgot to mention
 Girl, leave that fool alone
 I keep hoping and telling myself
 Somewhere there's one good one left
 'Cause my poor heart needs somebody who
 Can take it like a man, steady and strong
 Not a lot of fuss and carrying on
 True to a promise I can ride in a storm
 Take it like a man who knows about love
 And every little thing that a girl dreams of
 Someone wise enough to understand
 If you want this woman's heart
 Take it like a man
 Can take it like a man, steady and strong
 Not a lot of fuss and carrying on
 True to a promise I can ride in a storm
 Take it like a man who knows about love
 And every little thing that a girl dreams of
 Someone wise enough to understand
 If you want this woman's heart
 Take it like a man
 Take it like a man
 Well honey if you want my heart you gotta
 Take it like a man
 Take it like a man
