Love Me Like A Man lyrics
by Bonnie Raitt



The men that I've been seeing
well they got their soul up on a shelf
you know they could never love me
'cause they can't even love themselves

But I want someone to love me
baby I want one to understand
Won't put himself above me
Who can love me like a man

I never seen such losers
even though I tried
Find a mind to take me home instead of
taking me for a ride

Baby, I use someone to care
Believe it when I tell you darlin'
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 whose gonna rock me
like my backbone was his own

baby, I want to wait until you can
Believe it when I tell you darlin'
You can love me like a man

Come home sad and lonely
Feel like I wanna cry
(Just want someone to hold me, Not some fool who asks me why)
Come over here and hold me baby
and don't ever ask the reason why
I said I, I want a lover
Won't have to work to understand

Don't put yourself above me baby
Love me like a man
