[Verse 1] Things just ain't the way that they used to be Back in the day when a man meant security After working hard all week Baby kick back and throw up your feet Let me fix you a treat So it might be a little bit sweet But he's worth it He deserves it He may not be perfect But he's all the man I need He's ready and willing Gives me the feeling, ah And whenever we're together I know I'm where I belong [Chorus] It's just the way he looks into your eyes Love that man It's the love he gives that makes you fantasize Love that man It's the time he takes to show you that he cares And he's always there (He's always always there) Don't you love that man (I know) [Verse 2] Things they ain't the way they used to be When a woman and a man work hard to be Happy in love and stand together ooh (Let's stay that way forever) When you get into a fight Just try to work it out Never give up on him That's not what love's about Stay true to your feelings And remember All the things he's done for you [Chorus] x2 [Bridge] You'd better know I'm talking about that old-school love That everlasting feeling can never be too much Somebody loves you heart and soul Hold on, don't stop And never let him go [Chorus]
