Sometimes it''s hard to be a woman
giving all your love to just one man.
You''ll have bad times
And he''ll have good times,
Doin'' things that you don''t understand.
But if you love him you''ll forgive him,
even though he''s hard to understand.
And if you love him Oh be proud of him,
''Cause after all he''s just a man.
Stand By Your Man,
Give him two arms to cling to,
And something warm to come to
when nights are cold and lonely.
Stand By Your Man,
And tell the world you love him.
Giving all the love you can.
Stand By Your Man.
Stand By Your Man,
And show the world you love him.
Keep giving all the love you can;
