Bonnie Raitt - Love Me Like a Man lyrics

rate me

The men that I've been seeing, baby

Got their soul up on a shelf

you know they could never love me

When they can't even love themselves

But I need someone to love me

Someone to really understand

Who won't put himself above me

Who'll just love me like a man

I never seen such losers darlin'

even though I try…

…to find a mind who can take me home

'stead of taking me for a ride

And I need someone to love me

I know you can

Believe me when I tell you

you can love me like a man

Oh they want me to rock them

like my back ain't got no bone

I want a man to rock me

like my… backbone was his own

baby, I know you can

Believe me when I tell you

You can love me like a man

I Come home sad and lonely

Feel like I wanna cry

I need someone to hold me

Not some fool to ask me why

And I need someone to love me

Darlin' I know you can

Don't you put yourself above me

You just love me like a man
