Susan Rogers - I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man lyrics

It was only last June when her old man ran away She couldn't stop crying cause she knew he was gone to stay It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night She was standin' by the bar Hmm, she was lookin' alright, yeah I asked if she wanted to dance And she said all she wanted was a good man And wanted to know if I thought I was qualified, yeah 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 It hurt me so bad when she told me With tears in her eyes (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 cryin' Cause she knew he was gone to stay 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 And I said, baby don't waste your time I know what's on your mind You wouldn't be satisfied with a one night stand And I could never take the place of your man Yeah, yeah, the place of your man
