When a man loves a woman Can't keep his mind on nothin' else He'd trade the world For a good thing he's found If she is bad, he can't see it She can do no wrong Turn his back on his best friend If he puts her down When a man loves a woman Spend his very last dime Trying to hold on to what he needs He'd given up all his comfort Sleep out in the rain If she said that's the way it's ought to be When this man loves this woman I give you everything I've got Trying to hold on to your reckless love Baby, baby please don't treat me bad Lorsqu'un homme aime une femme De tout son coeur Il est prêt à tout pour gagner son amour If she is playing him for a fool He's the last one to know Loving eyes can never see When a man loves a woman Spend his very last dime Trying to hold on to what he needs He'd given up all his comfort Sleep out in the rain If she said that's the way it's ought to be When this man loves this woman I give you everything I've got Trying to hold on to your reckless love Baby, baby please don't treat me bad When a man, when a man, oh When a man loves a woman I know exactly what it feels Because baby you're my lover If she is playing him for a fool He's the last one to know Loving eyes can never see He'd given up all his comfort Sleep out in the rain If she said that's the way it's ought to be When a man loves a woman
