Never Take The Place Of Your Man lyrics

It was only last June when her old man ran away
She couldn`t stop cryin`, she knew he was gone to stay
Ten thirty five on a lonely Friday night
She was standin` by the fire, uh, she was lookin` alright

I asked her if she wanted to dance and she said
All she wanted was a good man who wanted to know if I thought I was qualified
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 can never take the place of your man

It hurt me so bad when I saw the tears in her eyes
She was all he ever wanted and now she wanted to die
He left her with a baby and another one on the way
She couldn`t stop cryin` she knew he was gone to stay

She asked me if we couldn`t be friends and I said
Oh, honey baby, that`s okay you know and I know, know, know you wouldn`t be satisfied

I said, baby, don`t waste your time
And 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

I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man

I may be qualified for a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man

La la la oh oh woah
Never take the place of your man
That`s all I need, girl
Is a one night, one night, one night stand
I don`t wanna be like a steak in your mind
Oh, girl, if you need a friend I`m there by your side
Sha la la la, sha la la
Sha la la la, sha la la
