James Brown - Doing the Best I Can lyrics

I'm doing the best I can Doing the best I can I'm only a man, darling My life has been empty Since you went away I feel so very, very lonely I just drift from day to day I'm doing the best I can Trying to get over Doing the best I can I'm brokenhearted It's my fault Treated you wrong so many times I just wanna talk I'm just a man Doing the best I can Now darling I'm doing the best I can Each and every day So many times I know you gone away Said I know you gone away I miss you each and every day Every, every, every, every day I just... I get lonely, night after night Wonder if I'm doing what's wrong or if I'm doing what's right But I'm only a man, baby Babe I'm only a man I'm for real I'm for real and I'm doing the best that I can I'm for real Now baby I'm for real Now baby I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real I sit down and I wonder I'm for real What and who and where I'm for real What have I been wrong, I wonder who cares I'm for real Tell me now I'm for real Is it right for me to suffer? I'm for real Yeah I stand with my head hangin' low I'm for real Wondering which way to turn I'm for real I don't know just where to go I'm for real How long can I keep it up? I'm for real Tell me, tell me I'm for real How long, how long? I'm for real I need it I'm for real My darling, I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real, baby, but I want you to know I'm for real I miss you baby, darling I miss you so I'm for real I miss you, darling I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real I'm for real I miss you, darling I'm for real How long can I keep it up? I'm for real Night after night I'm for real Don't know whether it's wrong or right I'm for real But here I stand baby I'm for real With my head hangin' so low I'm for real Here I stand, baby Baby do you know? Do you know? I remember when you were here with me I remember when you were here I remember when you were here with me I remember me and Mrs. Jones I remember me and Mrs. Jones How we had a thing goin' on Oh we were carryin' on We were carryin' on I know deep down inside I was wrong I want you to help me Help me, help me Help me darling, show me the way Come to you one more time Show me the way I wanna know a way I'm standing here with my head hanging low I'm standing here I said I'm, I'm standing here I'm standing here, me and Mrs. Jones I'm standing here I know we were wrong, I just want some help Oh, baby Now can you make another friend Can you, can you make another Can you make another Oh, darling Do you know what it means to have someone need you? Want you? Oh you cheated on me, you should not have left me here Should not have left me here Makes me wanna cry I'm so lonely, but baby I'm just a man Doing the best I can I, I, I'm just a man I'm just a man I'm just a man
