i could never take the place of your man (1979 version) - prince lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
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
that’s when i first saw her, ow, she was lookin’ alright

[pre*chorus]
i asked if she wanted to dance
and she said all she wanted was a good man
and she wanted to know if i thought i was qualified, yeah

[chorus]
and i said, “baby, don’t waste your time
i know what’s on your mind, yeah
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
and she couldn’t stop cryin’ ’cause she knew he was gone to stay, yeah

[pre*chorus]
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,” yeah
[chorus]
and i said, “baby, don’t wasting your time
i know what’s on your mind
i won’t be satisfied with a one*night stand
and i could never take the place of your man”

[outro]
but i’ll try, yeah
i’ll sure as h*ll try
honey, i’ll try, yeah
i’ll try, baby
take the place of your man, yeah
take the place of your man, yeah
sure as h*ll try, yeah
place of your, place of your, place of your, yeah
sure as h*ll try, yeah
