Song title: Prince - I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man

Edit By: 216.73.217.165

It was only last june when her old man ran away
She couldnt stop crying cause she knew he was gone 2 stay
It was 10:35 on a lonely friday night
She was standin by the bar
Hmm, she was lookin alright, yeah
I asked if she wanted 2 dance
And she said all she wanted was a good man
And wanted 2 know if I thought I was qualified, yeah
And I said, baby dont waste your time
I know whats on your mind
I may be qualified 4 a one night stand
But I could never take the place of your man

It hurt me so bad when she told me
With tears in her eyes (tears in her eyes)
He was all she ever had and now she wanted 2 die
He left her with a baby and another one on the way
She couldnt stop cryin
Cause she knew he was gone 2 stay
She asked me if we could be friends
And I said, oh, honey baby thats a dead end
U know and I know that we wouldnt be satisfied

And I said, baby dont waste your time
I know whats on your mind
U wouldnt be satisfied with a one night stand
And I could never take the place of your man

Yeah, yeah, the place of your man
