I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] It was only last June when her old man ran away She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night She was standin' by the bar Hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah I asked if she wanted to dance And she said all she wanted was a good man And wanted to know if I thought I was qualified, yeah [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 cryin' cause she knew he was gone to stay 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 I may be qualified for a one night stand But I could never take the place of your man
