True Man
Intro:
This song goes out to everybody
Who had somebody
An' you knew they was right
But some kind of way
You messed up anyhow
Verse 1:
I remember when we first met
You said you wanted everything
I tried my best to make it happen but
What you said you didn't mean
An' now the table's turned
You feel like your bridge is burned
I just tried to be a man babe
You know you did the wrong thing girl
You don't understand me
I don't think you heard me
First came the nice, then came the pain
You know you hurt me so bad baby
But now I see, and now I know
Now I see that you really wasn't ready for me
Chorus:
You can't handle a true man
One who really, really wants to be
You can't handle a true man
Girl, I give you my cream and everything
You can't handle a true man
One who really wants you to understand
You can't handle a true man
Said I give you all my lovin' babe
Anytime you want it baby
Verse 2:
I try my best to treat you right, girl
But you act like you don't like it
Now I see that we weren't meant to be
Even though I thought that you were made for me
Here I go again, it feels like a lonely sin
That I made
How ya just let me go baby
And it really, truly hurts so bad
An' why you wanna make me so sad?
First came the nice, then came the pain
Why'd ya hurt me so bad?
But now I see, an' now I know
Now I know you wasn't ready
Baby, you can't handle it
Chorus
Verse 3:
When I first saw you' girl
I truly thought you were the one for me
An' one day you finally made me see baby
Too bad you couldn't handle all that I had in store
Messed it up the first time an' now you want some more
You ruined my life, you ruined my life
An' now you wanna make it right
Chorus
Bridge:
I need a true love baby, I need a true love
Need someone treat me right
'Cause I don't wanna fuss and fight
I need true love baby, I need a true love
You can't handle a true man
(repeat)
Chorus
