The men I've been seeing baby
got their soul up on a shelf
You know they could never love me
when they can't even love themselves.

And I need someone to love me,
someone who really understands.
Who won't put themselves above me,
who'll just love me like a man.

I've never seen such losers,
even though I tried
to find a man who could take me home
instead of taking me for a ride.

And I need someone to love me, darlin I know ya can.
Don't you put yourself above me, you just love me like a man.

They all want me to rock them like my back ain't got no bone.
I want a man to rock me like my backbone was his own.

Darlin I know ya can.
Believe me when I tell you,
you can love me like a man.

Came on sad and lonely, feel like I wanna cry
Want a man to hold me, not some fool who asks me why.

And I need someone to love me, baby you can
Don't you put yourself above me, just love me like a man.
