I'm a man and I need love
I'm begging you babe begged the lord above
but when I get love it tears me apart
I'm giving you love and you're breaking my heart

give it to me
give me your love
if I die in hell or in heaven above

I need respect like any other man
even though I'm treating you bad
so give me want I want and be true to me
or I'll find another who'll give it to me

chorus
solo

I try to be decent in the way I behave
I bought you the things for which you crave
I done the best that I can
now don't mistreat me for another man

chorus
