David Allan Coe - Stand by Your Man Lyrics

Sometimes it's hard to be a woman
Giving all your love to just one man
You'll have bad times and he'll have good times
Doin' things that you don't understand

But if you love him you'll forgive him
Even though he's hard to understand
And if you love him be proud of him
'Cause after all he's just a man

Stand by your man give him two arms to cling to
And something warm to come to when nights are cold and lonely
Stand by your man and tell the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can, stand by your man

Well honey that's the only way
That daddy knows how to answer your question
I knew when your mama passed away
That someday I have to explain the things to you

That might make me and you both feel uncomfortable
So I thought that the best thing to do
Is to sing you this song your mama used to sing
I hope that you will understand 'cause she did stand by her man

Stand by your man give him two arms to cling to
And something warm to come to when nights are cold and lonely
Stand by your man and tell the world you love him
Keep giving all the love you can, stand by your man

Stand by your man give him two arms to cling to
And something warm to come to when nights are cold and lonely
