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

When a man loves a woman

Can't keep his mind on nothin' else

He'd trade the world

For a good thing he's found

If she is bad, he can't see it

She can do no wrong

He turns his back on his best friend If he puts her down

Yes, When a man loves a woman

Spend his very last dime

Trying to hold on to what he needs

He'd give up all of his comforts

And sleep out in the rain

If she said that's the way

It's gotta be

Well this man loves the woman

(yes I do)

I give everything I have

Trying to hold on to her kind of love

Why if can she treat me bad?

When a man loves a woman

I've talked about it down deep in the soul

She can bring him such misery

If she's playing him for a fool

He's the very last one to know

Loving eyes can never see

Yes when a man loves a woman

Oh, he spends his very last dime

Trying to hold on to what he needs

He'd give up all of his comforts

Oh, that fool sleeps out in the rain

If she said that's the way

It's gotta be

I need it down deep in the soul
