I know you can understand
How a woman needs a man

Oh, especially
When she's feeling bad

She'll call all over town
Just to see if he's around

And it she finds it impossible
That woman, that woman, will still give it a try
She'll give it a try

I know, it's kinda hard sometimes
Try to hold him down

Oh, especially
If he wants to go

Oh, but I, rather lend him
Than to live my life without him

And if worse comes to worse
I know, I know, that woman
Is gonna still give him a try
Just one little try

Now girls, I'd like to tell you a little story
I'm sure you'll be able to read between the lines
Every once in a while, a woman needs a man
Especially if she's feeling bad
Sometimes she'll sit down and cry
She'll even make a fool out of herself
And call all over town to see if he's around
And if she finds it impossible, to find ‘em

That woman, that woman
Will still give it a try
She'll give it a try
Ohhh she'll give it
A try
She'll give it a try

Girls I know you'll understand
When I explain to you about this man
He's so hard to please sometime
But we going to give him another chance

Sometimes we have to call for him
We'll give him another chance

His heart is so hard
