Stand By Your Man Lyrics
Motörhead & Wendy O. Williams
Lyrics
Sometimes it's hard to be a woman
Giving everything to just one man
'Cause you'll have good times, and he'll have good times
They say you'll make him understand
So, if you want, you can forgive him
I think you fine, you kick a scamp
And if you love him, just fix your oven
'Cause after all he's just a man
Stand by your man
Give him a place to come to
And something hot to go to, whenever he feels lonely
Stand by your man
You've got to show you want him
Just give him everything you can
Stand by your man
Stand by your man
Give him a place to come to
And something hot to go to, whenever he feels lonely
Stand by your man
You've got to show you want him
Just give him everything you can
Stand by your man
Stand by your man
Stand by your man
Stand by your man
Stand by your man
