Love Me Like a Man - Bonnie Raitt Lyrics
Love Me Like a Man
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
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
