(Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton - Tammy Wynette)

There are so many ways to love a man
And so many things to understand
And if there ever comes a time
He'll stay to change his mind.

I'll need a way to hold him and I can
If I know all the ways to love a man
But there's so many ways to lose a man
So quickly he can slip through your hands
One little thing goes wrong then all at once he's gone
And I'd have no way to hold him like I planned.

It takes more than just one way to love a man
With my hands in my heart anything I can find
My child, my home, my soul and my mind
I'll know that I can hold him.
Oh, yes I can if I know all the ways to love a man...
