When A Man Loves A Woman (Live At The Whisky A Go-Go/1967)

Lewis Wright

When a man loves a woman

Can't keep his mind on nothing else

He'd trade 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

He'll 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 precious love

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, I'm a man

When a man loves a woman
