Rasputina - If Your Kisses Can't Hold the Man You Love lyrics

rate me

Every time that I hear a woman cry 'cuz her man has left her flat

I just feel like saying, "don't be such a fool, you fool."

Better dry your eyes, can't you realize

You gain nothing by that

Well, that's no way to keep his heart warm, baby,

When his love grows cool

What's the use in sighing?

What's the use in crying

If he's wondered off the track

'Cuz if your kisses won't hold the man you love

Then your tears won't bring him back, no

Might as well be cheerful

There's no use being tearful

If he's given you the sack?

'Cuz if your kisses won't hold the man you love

Then your tears won't bring him back

Now, listen

If sweet sugar kissin' isn't gonna make him come home

Tell me,how do ya hope to keep him to ya

With tears instead of song

Just be a normal fella

Come on, say "What the hell-a"

Get his clothes and help him to pack

'Cuz if your kisses won't hold the man you love

Then your tears won't bring him back

Love is like home cooking: good, and wholesome

But all men need some mutton on the outside now and then

If you find your boy is cheating,

Do the same, old dear

He's only giving you the chance that you've been waiting for for years

My goodness! Tears won't get you anything

Just a shiny red nose

Go on, paint up, powder up, put on your swellest clothes

Men: go and get 'em by the score

Neglected girls shouldn't worry

That's what God made sailors for!

Don't cry for him or chase him

Just go out and replace him

With some good looking Tom, Dick or Jack

'Cuz if your kisses won't hold the man you love

Then your tears won't bring him back

If your kisses won't hold

The man you love

Then your tears won't bring him back!
