F             A#
Well you can go out with him
F                 C
Play with all of his toys
F           A#
But takin' care of you darlin'
F         C
Ain't for one of the boys
F          Dm
Oh there's somethin' in your soul
F               Dm
That he's gonna rob
A#              C  A#           C
And lovin' you baby lovin' you darlin'

Lovin' you woman is a man's man's job

Chorus:
F               A#
Lovin' you's a man's job baby

Lovin' you's a man's job baby

Lovin' you's a man's job

Well now his kisses may thrill
Those other girls that he likes
But when it comes to treatin'
A real woman right
Well all of his tricks
No they won't be enough

Chorus:
'Cause lovin' you baby lovin' you woman
Lovin' you darlin' is a man's man's job
Lovin' you's a man's job baby
Lovin' you's a man's job
Lovin' you's a man's job baby
Lovin' you's a man's job

You're dancin' with him he's holding you tight
I'm standing here waitin' to catch your eye
Your hand's on his neck as the music sways
All my illusions slip away
Now if you're lookin' for a hero
Someone to save the day
Well darlin' my feet
They're made of clay
But I've got somethin' in my soul
And I wanna give it up

Chorus:
But gettin' up the nerve
Gettin' up the nerve
Gettin' up the nerve is a man's man's job
Lovin' you's a man's job baby
Lovin' you's a man's job
Lovin' you's a man's job woman
Lovin' you's a man's job
