Lyrics:
When a man loves a woman,
Can't keep his mind on nothin' else,
He'd change the world for the good thing he's found
If she is bad, he can't see it,
She can do no wrong,
Turn his back on his best friend if he put her down
When a man loves a woman,
'Spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comforts
And sleep out in the rain,
If she said that's the way
It ought to be
Well, this man loves you, woman
I gave you everything I have,
Tryin' to hold on to your hot blood long
Baby, please don't treat me bad
When a man loves a woman,
Down deep in his soul,
She can bring him such misery
If she is playin' him for a fool,
He's the last one to know
Lovin' eyes can never see
When a man loves a woman
he can do her no wrong,
he can never hug
some other girl
Yes,When a man loves a woman
I know exactly how he feels,
'Cause baby, baby, you're my girl
When a man loves a woman...
