Bonnie Raitt - Love Me Like a Man (live) Lyrics

Love me like a man


The men that I've been seeing, baby
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

I never seen such losers darlin’
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
