Bobby Womack - Anthology: Bobby Womack

I Can't Take It Like a Man

Girl, I've got a little message for ya
I want you to take heed
Listen, it says, uh...

Men, they don't cry to dry their eyes
Or to make a tear drop, oh no
And I'm not weepin' to keep from sleepin'
Girl, I wish you could stop

I was your man, a mountain of rag
You came along to change me inside
There's not a man, ain't no wired up toy
But I'm still hangin' around for you to enjoy

I can't take it like a man
I can't take it like a man
I'm headin' nowhere, just as fast as I can
I can't take it like a man
I can't make it like a man
I need your lovin' in the palm of my hand, ooh

Hearts don't break, to take the ache
That they're going through, oh no
If you're mistaken
It might weaken you because I love you

Oh love, if you can
Won't you please hear it back
Keep me on the right track
Roll me some rope, don't let me drown
Please have a heart, this is my third time down

I can't take it like a man
I can't take it like a man
I'm gettin' nowhere, just as fast as I can
I can't take it like a man
I can't take it like a man
I need your lovin' in the palm of my hand, oh

I can't take it, won't you help me make it?
I wanna take it, I can't take it

Oh, I can't take it like a man
I can't make it like a man
I need your lovin' in the palm of my hand

I can't take it
Oh, I can't take it
