It Takes A Whole Lotta Man For A Woman Like Me - Gladys Knight & The Pips

Um boy, you’re sure in a hurt

You think you can treat me like dirt and then

Get away with it, honey

Well, you got another thing comin' now

You just want me to do anything you ask me to

Well then, we can’t make it baby

'Cos this ol' heart couldn’t take it, now

You mistook my kindness, the weakness in me

That ain’t the way true love is supposed to be

Oh, it takes a whole lotta man for a woman like me

(Takes a whole lotta man for a girl like her)

It’s gonna take more of a man than you’ll ever be

(Better get yourself together, now)

Oh boy, you’re sure in a fix (Oh boy)

I’m sick and tired of your tricks and your heart that’s…

And you don’t even tell me why

Need someone who can see

What I’m tryin' to be, but

You don’t appreciate

And I don’t like where I’m situated

Never knowin' what changes you’re gonna go through

(Gonna go through)

And I don’t need no kid who’s alone and you

Oh, it takes a whole lotta man for a woman like me

(Takes a whole lotta man for a girl like her)

It’s gonna take more of a man than you’ll ever be

(Better get yourself together, now)

Oh boy, you’re sure in a jam

What kinda fool do you think I am

Oh (Woo…)

Woo… Um…

Sick and tired of bein' wrapped on a reel like piece of wood

Oh yeah, sick and tired of bein' a laughing stock

Everyday of the neighborhood

Oh…

Oh, it takes a whole lotta man for a woman like me

(Takes a whole lotta man for a girl like her)

It’s gonna take more of a man than you’ll ever be

(Better get yourself together, now)

Oh, yeah

Oh, it takes a whole lotta man for a woman like me

(Takes a whole lotta man for a girl like her)

It’s gonna take more of a man than you’ll ever be

(Better get yourself together, now)

Woo…

Oh, it takes a whole lotta man for a woman like me

(Takes a whole lotta man for a girl like her)

It’s gonna take more of a man than you’ll ever be

(Better get yourself together, now)
