Song | Never Take the Place of Your Man |
Artist | Goo Goo Dolls |
Album | Hold Me Up |
It was only last june when her old man ran away | |
She couldn't stop cryin', she knew he was gone to stay | |
10:35 on a lonely friday night | |
She was standin' by the fire - unh - she was lookin' alright | |
I asked her if she wanted to dance and she said | |
All she wanted was a good man who wanted to know if i thought i was qualified | |
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 can never take the place of your man' | |
It hurt me so bad when i saw the tears in her eyes | |
She was all he ever wanted and now she wanted to die | |
He left her with a baby and another one on the way | |
She couldn't stop cryin' she knew he was gone to stay | |
She asked me if we couldn't be friends and i said | |
Oh honey baby that's ok you know and i know, know, know you wouldn't be satisfied | |
I said 'baby don't waste your time | |
And 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' | |
I may be qualified for a one night stand | |
But i could never take the place of your man | |
I may be qualified for a one night stand | |
But i could never take the place of your man | |
La la la oh oh whoa | |
Never take the place of your man | |
That's all i need girl | |
Is a one night, one night, one night stand | |
I don't wanna be like a steak in your mind | |
Oh girl if you need a friend i'm there by your side | |
Sha la la la sha la la | |
Sha la la la sha la la |
