My Man Medley: The Man I Love/I Got It Bad And That Ain't Good/Some Of These Days - Live At Universal Amphitheatre, Los Angeles/1978

You know
I just wanna say this
This is something I think most of you ladies will identify with
And maybe some of you men too

Someday he'll come along
The man I love
And will he be rich and strong?
The man I love
And when he comes my way
I'll do my best to make him stay, hmm

He'll look at me and smile
I'll understand
And maybe for a while
He'll take my hand
And though it seems absurd
I know we both won't say a word

You know, I'm the kind of lady
That always seems to find the wrong man
At the wrong place at the wrong time
It's not that I go out looking for him
But somehow he always seems to find me
You see, what I'm looking for is the kind of man
That comes home with candy and flowers and say
"Come on, honey, put on your dancing shoes
We're gonna wine and dine, wine and dine"

But what I always seem to find is the kind of man
That comes home fussing and fighting
Breaking my best dishes
And beat my head upside the wall
Shows no love no respect and nothing at all

Never treats me sweet and gentle
The way he should
I've got it bad and that ain't good!
I know, it ain't good at all, and you know

Listen, have you been treating your lady nice lately, you have?
And how about you?
Great!
Well, I've been gettin' rocked completely!

My poor heart is sentimental
It's not made of wood
I've got it bad and that ain't good

So you see on Monday nights
I just go out and drink and drink

So when the weekend's over (over)
And Monday rolls around (around)
I end up like I start out just cryin' my heart out
Cryin' my heart out

Lord above me (come on, make him love me)
The way he should (and he knows he should)
I've got it bad, baby (just how bad?)
I've got it bad, baby (woo)
I've got it bad and that ain't good!
No it ain't good at all

But listen Mister Big Shot, I've got your number
And I'll take care of you
And you too and you and you and you

Some of these days
You're gonna miss your Donna
Some of these days
You're gonna feel so lonely

You'll miss my huggin'
You'll miss my kissin'
You'll miss me daddy
When I'm far away

You're gonna be so lonely
For me only
'Cause you know daddy
You had your way

And if I leave you
I know it's gonna grieve you
You're gonna miss your sweet lovin' Donna
All of these days

And if I leave you
You know it's gonna grieve you
You're gonna miss your sweet little Donna
Some of these days

Hey honey, call me when you got time
Know what I mean
Thank you so much
Thank you!
