Bobby Keys - I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man lyrics

Verse 1 Only last June when her old man ran away She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay 10:35 on a lonely Friday night She was standing by the fire and ooh she was looking alright B-Section I asked her if she wanted to dance And she said that All she wanted was a good man And wanted to know If I thought I was qualified Chorus And I said baby don't waste your time I know what's on your mind I may be qualified for a one night stand But I could never take the place of your man Verse 2 It hurt me so bad when she told me with tears in her eyes He was all she ever had and now she wanted to die He left her with a baby and another one on the way She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay B-Section She asked me if we could be friends And I said oh honey baby that's a dead end You know and I know That we wouldn't be satisfied Chorus And I said baby don't waste your time I know what's on your mind baby Wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand And I could never take the place of your man (Chorus out)
