When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing 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
He'll spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs

He'd give up all [bad word] 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.
