Betty Wright - Gimme Back My Man lyrics

Gimme back my man Gimme back my man Gimme back my man Gimme back my man Take this horseshoe It can't do what my man can do Not looking maybe but it ain't doin' a thing for me You can have this four leaf clover It can't do a good job of holding me Take all these lucky charms I'd rather be in my man's arms Lucky charms I don't need They don't do a thing for me And I know without a doubt It's my man's love I can't do without So Gimme back my man Gimme back my man Gimme back my man Just gotta have my man I went to the fortune teller To have my fortune read She took my hand in hers And this is what she said "Give up your man" As she began to read my palm "You can find yourself a better one If you take these lucky charms" Oh what a fool I was to give that man away I hope it's not too late To correct the mistake I made But sure as the sun rises in the east and the sun sets in the west I declare ain't nowhere have I found a better man yeah 'Cause lucky charms is a fantasy Can't be living in a world of make believe Getting all built up for a big let down Waitin' for my love to roll all around Life's too short to believe in those things I'd rather have mine while all the things So Gimme back my man Gimme back my man, listen to me Gimme back my man yeah Just gotta have my man You can have this old rabbit's foot I never did like, like the way it looked And you can even have the penny in the case 'Cause it will never ever take my man's place 'Cause lucky charms are a fantasy They don't mean a thing to me And I know without a doubt It's my man's love I can't do without So Gimme back my man hey yeah Gimme back my man mmh Gimme back my man, yeah Just gotta have my man Give him back Need him back Yes I do Want him back hey yeah Ooh ooh yeah Gimme gimme gimme back
