Understand Your Man

(album: Breakwater Cat - 1980)

Does he do the things that kind of drive you crazy?
Sweet as apple pie, then acting mean and lazy
It's hard to understand, I wanna take your hand
When you say: come and understand your man

Yes I'll always love you, no I'll never leave you
Just because I say so, that's why you believe it
It's hard to understand, I wanna take your hand
When you say: come and understand your man

Now love, if there's trouble
Then I, I'll get right over
We'll sit right down, and we'll just talk it over
'Cause if we fight and then we say goodnight
And then we fight, say goodnight that ain't right!
No, no no, baby, that ain't right

Do you want a friend or do you want a lover
I'll be either or, just don't treat me like your mother
It's hard to understand, I wanna take your hand
When you say: come and understand your man
Your man, baby

Now love, if there's trouble
Then I, I'll get right over
We'll sit down, and we'll just talk this thing over
'Cause if we fight, and then we might say goodnight
And then we fight, say goodnight that ain't right!
No, no no no, baby

Now love, if there's trouble
Then I, I'm gonna get over
We'll sit right down, and we're gonna talk this thing over
'Cause if we fight, and then we might say goodnight
And then we fight, say goodnight that ain't right!
No no, no, no, baby

It's hard to understand my man sometimes
Let me tell you 'bout it:
It's hard to understand my man, yes it is
Yeah, yeah...
